Starting with a commercial fabric with a motif of red crosses, I built this art quilt in two sections, adding:

• a vintage bed sheet squeegeed, silk-screened, striated, and squirted with ochre and red thickened dyes
• recycled, plasticized packaging from goat feed bags, single serve tea bag envelopes, and other food items
• strip-sets from solid and striped fabric
• circles cut from aluminum soda and beer cans
• plastic mesh from citrus bags

Worked on during the pandemic, this piece came to represent the repetition of surges, the spiraling-out-of-control of populations struck by new Covid variations, but also standing together to protect one another.
