Kolam Quilts: This new series is based on the daily devotional drawings done by the women of Tamil Nadu, in southern India. Each day a new drawing is made of rice powder at the doorway of the home, invoking divine protection and blessing. I first saw these kolam on a visit to India in January 2008. Most of my quilts are based on the “pulli kolam” style in which reference spots called “bindu” are visible. The design objective is continuous lines creating closed shapes and symmetry. An exhibit of these pieces is on display at Lombardi Cancer Center at Georgetown University Hospital during September 2008.
Each piece is about 26 x 30”.
Individual pieces may be available for sale.
