Positive Negative: Greed vs Generosity and Entitlement vs Responsibility is my most recent double sided bead tapestry crocheted piece. The open rim and positive dazzling interior invite and emanate love and the qualities that I hope will overpower the negativity of the exterior.
Positive Negative: Greed vs Generosity and Entitlement vs Responsibility, cotton thread and glass beads, 7″ x 9 1/2″, 2022.
I should probably rename it Negative Positive because this basket was rejected by one juror but awarded second place in another international exhibit, Small Expressions, sponsored by the Handweavers Guild of America. This traveling exhibit will be at Pacific Northwest Quilt & Fiber Arts Museum, WA, July 5 – September 3, 2023; Haywood Community College, NC, September 21 – November 9, 2023; Yadkin Valley Fiber Center, NC, December 8, 2023 – February 15, 2024; and Vanderbilt’s Sarratt Gallery, TN, March through early May, 2024. I hope you’ll be able to see it in person and soak up the positivity!
