The first stop on our gallery tour yesterday was Lehman Maupin to see Billie Zangewa’s Wings of Change. These are works of a South African artist, working in silk collage, dealing with the world of Covid-19 isolation. I’ve tried to pair most of the works with a close-up, detail shot to show how these magnificent works were created.
You may be reminded of the work of Bisa Butler, a quilting artist I highlighted a few months ago in this post.
beautiful work!
Thank you!
Are these pieces as large as the Bisa Butler pieces? They look huge! And I love that you can see the stitch work so clearly.
Some are but I would say that on average Bisa Butler’s were larger – some were really bed cover-sized whereas most of these were not.
