The current SAQA call for quilts is called "Haven." It is described as, "All living creatures need a safe place to heal, regroup, rest, or retreat. Do you nurture your loved ones in a special place? Do you create a haven for others in need? What is your haven? Render the essential quality of a haven in visual form." I am entering two quilts, one represents the haven of my garden and the other the haven of my home in the mountains.

The number of bugs in our world is difficult to imagine. They survive on every continent --yes, even Antarctica! Worldwide environments rely on the contributions of these diminutive creatures, which range from insects to spiders, butterflies to beetles. They are a primary food source for many species and create the silk thread that humans weave into sumptuous cloth. They exhibit elaborate patterning and support ecological processes. They are so ubiquitous that the word “bug” translates globally, evoking both pleasure and pain.
This exhibition celebrates all manner of bugs and what they do, whether they creep, fly or invade computers; maybe there's even room for a Love Bug or two. This is a virtual exhibit and I am entering Three Beetles. |
