This juried exhibition is the fifth in an on-going series of open biennial events presented by the West Australian Quilters Association to highlight new and innovative works, and display the breadth of current practice in the quilt medium. It features a selection of the best of original contemporary quilted textiles produced in Western Australia, raising the quilt to an art form and challenging the notion of quilt as a functional bed cover. While some works retain a comfortable relationship to traditional quilts, others use unconventional materials and approaches. A wide range of Western Australian makers show their talents, including artists who do not consider themselves 'quiltmakers'.
