Jurors Mary Walter and Wen Redmond reviewed over 120 quilts from around the world to present thirty-seven vibrant and fascinating works in this exhibition. Mary Walter, an award-winning quilt artist and a certified National Quilting Association judge, has been involved in shows and multi-media juried exhibitions nationally and internationally. She is a founding member of Women Who Run with Scissors and the New England Fiber Collective and has curated at the New England Quilt Museum and Whistler House Museum of Art. Wen Redmond is an accomplished contemporary fiber artist. Working in the medium since 1973, she has been featured in numerous galleries, museums, and publications, including Columbia University, the Rubin Gallery, Fiber Arts Magazine, and International Quilters Magazine. Redmond’s work is adventurous and experimental, and often pushes the boundaries of fiber art. The subject matter of the quilts in Lasting Impressions spans from abstract notions and geometric designs to delicate treatments of still-lifes and landscapes. The exhibition features a stunning array of techniques, including hand-dying, painting, stenciling, and embroidering, but the diverse quilts all have one thing in common: they were pain-stakingly created and will certainly leave a lasting impression.”The Whistler House Museum of Art is thrilled to present this masterful collection of artistic quilts from around the world. The exceptional design, originality, and technique in this year’s exhibits makes for a stunning array that will truly leave a “lasting impression” for our visitors and guests,” says President and Executive Director Sara Bogosian.Contact: Whistler House Museum of Art
