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.

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.
