Opening reception Saturday September 14th, 3-5pm

Inspired equally by home textiles, colour field paintings and the integrity of the fabric, these works are more test than result, a giant, quilted, needlepoint sampler of sorts. This work is about vision and the blurry/buzzy eye that comes with colour field paintings and striped fabric.

These pieces are an experiment in materiality and planes of space that seek to be equally forward thinking and rooted in traditional making. The scope of former works are replaced with a scaling up of traditional textile techniques without becoming an unwieldy size.

McPhee borrows imagery from the natural world by adapting the suckers of the octopus as the design motif for a body-sized white-on-white trapunto quilt that relies on the shadows created by the thread. Unsteady, it depends on the angle of the light and the position of the viewer for its effect. Her image spills out of its borders to become an un-quilt.

“We have your satellite. If you want it back send 20 billion in Martian
money. No funny business or you will never see it again.”

A joke reportedly written on a wall in 1999 at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab
after losing contact with the Mars Polar Lander, which was never recovered.

The artist gratefully acknowledges the funding support of the City of Hamilton’s City Enrichment Fund.
