Camino landscape montages: I hiked 200 miles of the Camino Francés with my sons Andrew and Zach, starting in León and ending in Santiago de Compostela, photographically documenting landscapes and villages. Upon my return, I designed montages from the photographs, printed them to fabric and am quilting on a longarm quilting machine in my Lehigh University studio.
Sycamore CA is from a collection of wholecloth quilts based on the combination of cellular automata with photography from the natural world. This is a collaboration with Michael Chupa who worked on the cellular automata.
