<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Award-winning artist, author, and
teacher Elin Noble was inspired to create Vox Stellarum by the 18th century
prints of German theologian Jakob Scheucher, who believed science and sacred
scriptures were not mutually exclusive. For the series, Noble utilizes the
itajime clamp-resist process of folding and clamping the silk organza, then
selectively removing the sericin (silk gum). The result: an exquisite interplay
between transparency and opaqueness, and a subtle shifting of moiré patterns
when pieces are hung together and the cloth gently moves.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Boundaries, borders and edges...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">To what extent is a country defined by its perimeter...by the choices and placement of edges?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Whether political, historical, psychological and/or geographical, our comprehension and expression of these points of delineation represent integral pats of who we are, both as individuals and collectively.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Be it selvedge to selvedge, raw edge or treated, our textiles have unavoidable beginnings and endings. How these are handled can be as varied as the makers themselves.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We welcome your rich interpretation of this concept in presenting a diverse Canadian perspective on our boundaries.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The
top of the work will be required to have a “sleeve” for hanging purposes. The sleeve should measure two inches, in which
a flat metal rod will be inserted, and should stop ½-3/4” short of the side
edges so that the rod will not show on the front. The top edge of the sleeve
should be placed one to two inches from the top of the work.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #0e073a; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"><i>Anne Marie and I lead the Headdress workshop this past Saturday at Cityscape. We didn't know what to expect. The gallery told us the usual turnout for their workshops averaged 20 participants. We had around 30 ranging from children as young as four to adults (some artists). While we cut out a few forms for them, they were like butterflies coming out of cocoons and took off with their own ideas (some using inspiration from the exhibit) working very intensely on their projects. They rummaged around the fabrics, fake furs, etc. that we brought to come up with some really creative headdresses. We finally had to shoo some of them out the door at closing time with fabric in their hands….they could have kept going. A big part of the success was the variety of materials we put together--women were positively fawning over the printed fabrics, our leftovers from Cap College. Everyone enjoyed themselves.</i></span><br />

<b style="color: #4c4c4c; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;">SDA BC website - click <a href="http://www.surfacedesign.org/">here</a></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">In early June, eight BC Surface Design Association members attended the SDA conference in San Antonio. A number of people took workshops (some of them took a workshop before AND after the conference weekend!) and some just attended the exhibition tour, lectures, vendor fair, trunk show, fashion show and member meetings. I think it's fair to say that we all came away feeling inspired, recharged and eager to get on with some new creative endeavours.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><b>Congratulations to </b></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 18.88888931274414px;"><b>Connie Chapman</b>, from Sechelt on BC's Sunshine Coast, who won the JOY STOCKSDALE BEST in SHOW award at the SDA Members' Show.</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This exhibition was open to all SDA members, with a format restriction in that each piece had to be mounted on a 12" x 12" x 1 1/2" stretched canvas. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">It was a very strong show with lots of wonderful work from all over the world, so this is a significant feather in her cap. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The images below show some other award winners, and then entries by BC artists, then a few others from various locations. If you are a BC artist who sent in a piece and you don't see it here, please send me an image via my <a href="mailto:jenniferannelove@hotmail.com">email</a> and I will add it. We were rushed through the last part of the show, so I might have missed one or two.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I will post images of other exhibitions at the conference, next time.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Sponsored in part by Granville Island Tea Company, <i>From the Studio</i> will transform the studio/showroom of Sans Soucie into a fundraising installation where textile art, fashion/accessories, pottery, illustration and drawings will be for sale via silent auction. Former alumni from the program such as Ms. Soucie of Sans Soucie, Lexi Soukoreff of Daub and Design and Risa Salsberg of Edible Poetry have donated work alongside other local makers and businesses in the attempt to raise money for a scholarship. Proceeds from this event will establish a scholarship for one graduating student from the final graduating class of the Textile Arts Program at <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:placename w:st="on">Capilano </st1:placename><st1:placetype w:st="on">University</st1:placetype></st1:place> (Spring 2014).

<span style="font-size: 10pt;">The opening reception for the show <i>CUTTINGS; Textile Paintings by Jennifer Love</i>, was held on Saturday, March 30th, 2013, and it was a wonderful event. It all happened at </span><a href="http://www.fibreworksgallery.com/current-exhibit/" style="color: purple; font-size: 10pt; text-decoration: none;">FibreWorks Gallery</a><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> in Madeira Park, Pender Harbour on the Sunshine Coast, BC</span><b style="font-size: 10pt;">.</b></div>

<span style="font-size: 10pt;">The members of the Sunshine Coast SDA group provided and coordinated all the food for the party and it was fabulous - check out the picture below showing the great plethora of nibblie choices (always lots of gluten-free). That's me (Jennifer Love) in the middle in the orange top (matching the macarons which were made by Pat Crucil). Shown in the pic from left to right are: Pat Crucil, Connie Chapman, Jennifer Love, Jill Sullivan, Sharon Roye and Anne Gregory. Yvonne Stowell, alas, was busy with visitors.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Some time ago, a few of our members travelled to the <a href="http://www.seattleartmuseum.org/exhibit/interactives/nickCave/index.html">Seattle Art Museum</a> to see an exhibition of Soundsuits by Nick Cave. Click <a href="http://soundsuitshop.com/shop/paper/holter-museum-catalog#shop">here</a> and <a href="http://www.maryboonegallery.com/exhibitions/2011-2012/Nick-Cave/index.html">here</a> for some websites concerned with his Soundsuits. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcvfW1HNnrs">This</a> is a great YouTube video - many more if you look for them. Our members were blown away by his show, and were particularly inspired by the show's juxtaposition with an exhibition of African masks and headdresses. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">This juried exhibition will
showcase works inspired by historical and/or cultural headdresses. Headdresses,
whether practical or ceremonial, have traditionally made a statement about the
wearer and their cultural community. Our contemporary take on these historical
artifacts will similarly make a statement about ourselves and our own cultural
environments, while exploring an exciting diversity of techniques and media, as
well as innovative approaches to the theme.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The title of
the exhibition, <i>Love Decay Repair</i>, draws on inspiration from the botanical
world, specifically the hosta plant in its various stages of decomposition.
Unlike the plant, however, these works on fibre hold possibilities of repair
through layering, stitching and other methods of reinforcement. The resulting
works express the vulnerability of nature, the complexity of its systems of
self-repair and the beauty to behold in every stage of its life cycle.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Michelle Sirois-Silver is a Vancouver-based
fibre artist who designs and hand hooks rugs for the floor and wall. Her most recent work, includes work that is a departure for her - assemblages that explore ways to combine screen printed surfaces with hand and
machine stitching.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">JASON POLLEN, President Emeritus of the Surface Design Association and artist/teacher extraordinaire, visited Vancouver in June of this year. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The picture above shows Jason inside the entrance to <a href="http://artemisinthecove.wordpress.com/">Artemis Gallery and Studio in Deep Cove</a>, North Vancouver, which was the venue for the two, two-day workshops he taught. It was a great space with lots of natural light - and excellent coffee/lunch venues right across the street!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">We hear that Jason will be in Vancouver again next year, so if you missed the workshops this time, there will be another opportunity. Following are some images taken during the workshops.</span><br />

I'm currently working on design concepts for a solo show at the Maple Ridge Art Gallery in 2012. While you're out crawling come by the studio, see the new works, and have a little conversation and refreshment. My studio is a little off the beaten path but close to most of the venues especially the William Clark Studios and the Old Foundry Building. It's easily accessed from the back of the building and I'm fortunate to be able to offer wheelchair access.</i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 17px;"> </span><br />
