Irene MacWilliam - Nature

I was asked to be a member of "Crossing Oceans"  an invited group of international artists from around the world, each offering their own unique perspective on the chosen theme of NATURE. Textile artist Jane Rollason is the curator of this group. Members of this exhibiting group are: Jane Rollason (UK), Hilary Beattie (UK), Charlotte Yde (Denmark), Irene MacWilliam (Northern Ireland), Bergen Rose (US), Dijanne Cevaal (Australia), Lin Hsin-Chen (Taiwan), Ineke Berlyn (UK), Frieda Anderson (US), Christiane Kuhr (Germany), Elaine Quehl (Canada), Pat Archibald (Scotland) and Kay Haerland (Australia)

I was asked to produce 6 pieces for the above group. It was suggested we make pieces 24 x 12 inches either portrait or landscape. I made my pieces as 3 sets of 2 using black and white striped fabric.
