In today’s preview of Art Quilt Australia 2023, we feature Embedded by Vanessa Newton-Brown of Hobart, Tasmania. Embedded is a botanical design, focussing on cycles of growth and decay; from the roots drawing the earth’s nutrients, to the spent seed pods at the season’s end. The central panel is a pastiche of floral motifs influenced by the style of French Art Deco textiles of the 1920’s.
AQA2023 Preview is a series of daily blog posts from 12 July – 11 August 2023 that will feature an artwork from the Ozquilt Network juried exhibition Art Quilt Australia 2023.
The exhibition will be on at the National Wool Museum, Geelong, Victoria, from 11 August until 12 November. Opening hours 10am to 5pm daily. Book online for the official opening at 3pm on Friday 11 August 2023. All welcome!
