Hi MC – sorry we won’t be there but hoping it goes well for you – as always mysterious pieces thoughtful created. Go well. B
(((Barry))) look forward to seeing Madeleine work her magic with them in the gallery space!
Good luck and best wishes Mo – they are special and I am sure they will look stunning in the gallery!
(((Fiona))) will take more photos on Saturday!
Sending all good wishes for a fine turnout Mo as I assume this is not a virtual event but one where people can actually attend… I keep coming back to look at Holding the Dark; fitting for the way life has gone this year; dark trapped inside and then released to be met, finally with the hopeful light of respect, empathy, love, caring and connection. Your choice of materials, stitching, turning an idea into reality, is so finely and beautifully precise.
(((Marti))) Holding the dark was made as the bushfires were raging back in January… in this strange dark year the moments of light and love and compassion and kindness shine all the brighter
Mo~ Best wishes for a wonderful showing. I’m with Marti on Holding The Dark. May your year end with light!
