Art quilt, textile art, fiber art, wall art, wall hanging- Siberian Winter
This quilt is based on the painting of Vanda Valiute, Lithuanian Gulag prisoner and Siberian deportee. I made this quilt for this years Verona Tessile, Italy, festival that featured the art of women, forgotten in history, but revived in art. The cemetery wasnt in her painting but it is based on the photo of the cemetery, where Vandas parents were buried. So many prisoners and deportees of different nations suffered and dyed there... The rest of Vandas story was an amazing one, but I will only tell it to those, who will be willing to listen...
The quilt measures 39x39 inches(100x100 cm). Has a hanging sleeve.
