“Over Time”
by
Dana Pratt  -  Upper Moutere

Featuring machine embroidery, quilting, wearable art garments
and several pieces of Haute-Couture embroidery.

Some of this work is mounted in glazed picture frames, and it has been impossible to remove reflections from the photographs. Please visit Fibre Spectrum and view this exciting collection in our Exhibition Room

 

"Unfinished Symphonies"  (Dana's entry in WOW 2003)

"What dreams, tears, hopes and fears are stitched into these works by unknown ladies, and why did tapestries end up discarded in junk and op shops?"
