Visual Description of Artwork

This quilt is hung vertically and features black-and-white transferred photographic images of the gifted ceramic Chinese bowl at the heart of the show, in different sizes. Three are positioned along the top band of the quilt, the others seem almost to “tumble” down the center of the white quilt. The white quilt is stitched in a squiggly pattern, mostly in white, but with some stitching in black, echoing the calligraphic designs on the surface of the bowl.
