Forty artists have been selected for the SAQA Global Exhibition Primal Forces: Earth by juror Sue Cavanaugh. This exhibition is the first in a three-part series to premiere at The National Quilt Museum over a six-year period.
This exhibition illustrates that all life on this planet depends on earth: it nurtures us through the soil beneath our feet. However, it can be a destructive force as well. Seismic activity and mudslides have shaped the landscape for millions of years and taken a toll on living beings as well. We are in an era of tremendous change in earth as well, due to shifting balances brought on by human activity.
