Contemporary Art Fix- January Bonus Edition! Anna Laurie Mackay






This month, you not only get a bonus! Me! That's right, I am featuring myself, since I am so terrible at starting a website of any kind here are a few images of pieces I have been recently working on.

I have been making quilts and weavings made out of drawings done on silk tissue paper. The drawings are all of mental maps of the house I grew up in. The work is about remembering place, attachment to place, and my body's experience in space and place in general. I hope you enjoy!

Woohoo! Thanks for the photos, they're pretty. I bet the textures/colors etc are prettier in person, though. Guess I'll just have to come for your final show! ;)

I just discovered (via Eva's blog) that you have a blog. Your artwork is outstanding! I love it!

Let me know when you have a website. I'd love to put a link to it on mine.
