FAN Conference in High River

A group of fifty fanatic fibre artists flew to High River Alberta to share ideas and plan future exhibits. Fibre Art Network is an organization that unites fibre artists from across western Canada. What a great time!


One of the long standing traditions is for each artist to make a journal sized fibre art piece, that the artist describes to the entire group and then it is given to another fibre artist participant. 


This year my piece was called, "Is Hindsight Really 20/20?"  In it an eye looks toward the west and sees ongoing political and societal problems, murdered and missing women on the highway of years and the TransPacific Pipeline controversy. 


I am excited to give this piece to a new member of FAN, Cindi. I hope she enjoys it and will hang it in her studio to remember her first FAN Conference.
