TEXTILE TALKS: Layered & Stitched: Conversations with the Artists, Presented by SJMQT

Join San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles for a conversation with international artists featured in Layered & Stitched! Layered & Stitched: 50 Years of Innovative Art is a gorgeous showcase of 50 art quilts by renowned master artists. Seminal works show the evolution of the art quilt from the earliest pioneers creating during the 1960s to today’s artists experimenting with new forms, materials, and digital technologies. Trace the development of this exciting art form as it developed from isolated makers, primarily in Ohio and California, into an international movement involving thousands of artists spanning the globe. In this Textile Talk, we'll be hearing from exhibiting artists Leslie Gabriëlse (Netherlands), Mary Pal (Canada), Jenny Hearn (South Africa), and Charlotte Yde (Denmark) about their work, process, and inspiration.
