image of quilt titled "Time Squared" by Erika Carter © 2003
   

Artist Statement: Using discharged fabric, time is alluded to in the circular strokes that suggest the cross-cut of wood. The concepts of time and memory are also referenced in the structure of the quilt, the dense lines of stitching. The stitching of line after line across the surface became a form of meditation. A bonus came with the heavy stitching - the "hand" of the quilt is more substantial. Perhaps we can only begin to understand time by the evidence it leaves behind.

Dimensions: 41.5" wide x 40" high

Materials and Techniques: Discharged cotton and linen fabric.
