A recent piece, created in 2023, has been included in two exhibitions this year. It was first shown in the Attleboro Arts Museum exhibition 100: Marking the Attleboro Arts Museum Centennial and later in an exhibition at Galatea Fine Art in Boston entitled Greater than the Sum of its Parts.
This quilt, made entirely of paper, depicts beautiful women, many dressed by the House of Worth. It includes clothing and Art Deco symbols, and is comprised of 9 collages, each made from a found print, art deco papers, and papers printed or painted by me. It conveys the luxurious lifestyle enjoyed by wealthy women in the Art Deco era, one that could be afforded only by women of worth. There is an intended irony in this depiction since the majority of women living at that time could never afford the lifestyle pictured here. Was their worth any less?
