Dance for your Life

Shows women, stitched into Mud Cloth, strips, hand woven and dyed in Mali, sub Saharan West Africa. 

Mali is one of the poorest countries in Africa and is in such a dangerous state of unrest that our government advises against all travel to the country at the moment.  Women and children always suffer in times of war, which is why my women are dancing for their lives, in their imagination.

But the echoes of hope are fading.

This piece [when finished]  and another Waving not Drowning  [when finished] will be at the TAGS exhibition in July.

Wow this is such a cool helmet, and head, I just have to do this thing.

Minerva and Medusa make friends

I am thinking of doing some stitching on Minerva and Medusa.

These are Etruscan but who's counting.
