I'm having an actual (NOT virtual) exhibition, opening this month in Dallas, Texas. With everything in Europe so thoroughly locked down, I am feeling very, very lucky. This slideshow shows some of the works on show. Details of the exhibition and opening event are below. Kevin, Wishes & Charms
Natalie Sirett WHERE: Ro2 Art in The Cedars 1501 S. Ervay St. Dallas TX, 75215 WHEN: April 17 - May 15, 2021 OPENING RECEPTION: Saturday, April 17, 2021, 12-8pm Ro2 will be hosting limited entry opening reception, reserve your FREE ticket via Eventbrite: RSVP Natalie Sirett is a British artist trained in academic painting and printmaking. Her newest body of work is informed by the survival of her own body, now in remission after undergoing ten months of treatment for cancer. Sirett hand embroidered over fifty antique handkerchiefs as she processed coming to terms with her own mortality. The intimacy of these textiles; square patches of fabric that hold joy, uncertainty, sadness, loss, happiness and hope, are a compelling choice of substrate for the artist’s words to exist on. The images take shape on a background of memory, pierced, looped, and needle-worked into Sirett’s compositions. These fiber art pieces, as well as several assemblage sculptures have never before been exhibited. www.sirett.com
