Event Details
Pattern Fusion explores quilt motifs using recycled materials for the vertical and horizontal elements. Repurposed 35 mm microfilm has an innate graphic pattern created by the microfilm text and photos. The addition of various colored Mylar, machine stitching, embroidery, and layers of netting creates several fused patterns when these materials are joined together by interlacing. Some of the results are subtle and others bold.
Whether using a floor loom, sewing machine, interlacing, or simply combining recycled or new materials in collage or assemblage processes, Sandoval pursues the cutting edge in his chosen art medium.

Event Details
Modern quilting has existed in many forms for much of the 20th century. It wasn’t until the 2000’s that quilts with a modern aesthetic, the use of bold colors and prints, high contrast and graphic areas of solid color, improvisational piecing, minimalism, expansive negative space, and alternate grid work began to appear in greater numbers and quilters began to describe themselves as modern.
This exhibition is a collection of quilts made by members of The Modern Quilt Guild over the first ten years of the organization.

Denise makes contemporary art quilt portraits of very non-contemporary structures: megalithic Celtic stones and monoliths, and more recent (but still centuries old) monastic ruins.
These stonescapes–stone circles, standing stones, dolmens, burial tombs, abandoned churches, forgotten cemeteries, and lost-in-history portals and passageways –embody both immense timelessness and physical presence while evoking emotional remembrances of human pasts largely forgotten.
