I find beauty and drama in working with abstract forms, where the only limits are self-imposed. I also have an ongoing fascination with how people move through life in relation to each other. Thus, there is often a figurative component in my quilts. In The Promise II, the figures are facing one another which felt to me like an affirmation. They are bounded and sheltered, but not constrained. They can feel protected, safe from discrimination, criticism, or physical harm. They have found a sanctuary.
