Ghosts

30”h x 30”w

These caged tigers are apparitions of a life and lifestyle we are losing.

Through human encroachment and natural disasters, the Asian Tigers have lost much of their forest and jungle home. We struggle to keep them from extinction by preserving a few specimen tigers alive in minimal and pampered sanctuaries.

This art quilt is constructed of two intertwined whole-cloth discharged creations, with painted tigers overlaid with transparent fabrics. The entire construction has then been stitched and embroidered to outline and emphasize the ghostly tigers in their current home.
