Consider the Lilies XXIV Spring Art Show and Sale
Fibres & Beyond is a women’s art textile co-operative based on the southern tip of Vancouver Island. The accomplished group of twelve was founded in 2002 as a way to support and challenge these artists working with surface design, fibre, fabric and mixed media. The work created by this co-operative ranges in dimension, varying in scale from tiny soft sculpture to large wall pieces.
The makers of this eclectic and colourful work paint, sew, embroider, hook, dye, felt, wrap and stretch all fibres.
From wool, silk & cotton, to seaweed, recycled garments & found items – all is put to use in their whimsical, functional, or decorative art.
The members are also known as “The Lilies”, a nickname given due to their annual spring show “Consider the Lilies.
Our members consist of:
Elizabeth Tanner, Irm Houle, Linda Danielson, Mary Wolfe, Phyllis Lysionek, Judy Seeley, Dana Sitar, Lisa Watson, Karen Smith, Anne Richmond, Eri Sawatzky and Kelley Minish.
