Nic's "Shona Spirit Sculptures" at RQM show

This is my "Shona Spirit Sculptures" quilt which was accepted into the "Spiritual Expressions in Fiber" exhibition at the Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum in Golden, CO. The show runs March 28 - June 3, 2006 - opening reception April 1, 2006, 4-6 pm. The photo transfers on the quilt were made from photos I took at the Denver Botanic Gardens in August of 2004, during the "Chapungu. Custom and legend; A culture in Stone" exhibit. "The sculptures in this exhibition tell stories, record history, observe everyday moments, teach lessons, bear witness, honor, mourn and celebrate." The sculptures were hand-chiseled, carved and sanded pieces of stone by sculptors from Zimbabwe. This piece is the second in a series.
