Vision 2020: Further Statistics & Curatorial Insights

19 January 2020 Filed Under: Curator Knowledge, Vision 2020 Leave a Comment

With scope to select up to 40 works from 100 complying entries, I wondered if the selection process for Vision 2020 might be a little easier than for my previous exhibitions. However, making the final selection was still an intense process and I had to leave out some strong works. Ironically, even my own entry Acuity #2: Colour Blind did not make the cut as it really did not fit in. Pop over to the new Vision 2020 blog for other vital statistics and curatorial insights.

Threads of our Time – Christchurch Symposium 2026
Threads of our Time - Christchurch Symposium 2026 - has released the teaching schedule. I will be teaching four workshops:

â­ Abstraction in Action (2 days): stretch your creative muscles! an introduction to abstraction in concept and practice;
â­ Logs & Ladders: building with improvisation - convert your scraps into dynamic compositions;
â­ Zig Zag Pizzazz: create energetic designs with flair and style with freeform piecing; and
â­ The Art of Finishing: enhance the presentation of your quilts. A fresh look at edge treatments, labels, hanging sleeves and more.

Bookings open next week. I went to my very first symposium back in 2003 and was energised by the enthusiasm and stimulation. I hope you will join me in 2026!
