SAQA Benefit Auction submission - Darcy Hunter



Serenity by Darcy Hunter 2020

Artist's Statement:

I feel an immeasurable sense of peace when I am near the water. It makes me happy to be alive in a deep, calming way.  I often choose to have water as the subject in my fibre art landscapes. 

My art quilt is the ocean at sunset.  Can you hear the tumbling waves crashing onto the shore?  There's still time to find some treasures on the beach.  The sky sparkles as the sun disappears.

This textile art is made with batik fabrics, a combination of new and upcycled textiles such as art yarns, vintage lace, organza, and cheesecloth.  There are also shells, sea glass, and a bead on the beach.
