fields of colour

My final destination at this year's Festival of Quilts is the Nancy Crow exhibition.  It's housed in a dramatic long gallery at the end of Hall 8 in the NEC.

Enormous panels of monochrome printed textile line the walls  Some burn with vibrant colour; others are muted and contemplative. 

Nancy is a hugely gifted textile artist based in her native Ohio. It is easy to see how the environment around her shapes her creativity. She lives on a 104 acre farm and viewed from the far end of the gallery the display takes on the appearance of a huge swaying field of psychedelic corn!
