Fervent Patience – A Treatise on Longing

This exhibition of 2D textile works represents my lifelong and continued relationship with needle and thread, exploring line, colour and texture, and the interplay of naturally occurring vs. manufactured materials and artifacts. 

Lily Corinne Anderton

A lifelong learner and maker, I have studied art both formally and informally at post-secondary institutions, through various guilds and throughout extensive travels. The humble and the tactile are my métier: fabric, thread, paper, canvas, pigment. My ongoing fascination is with the infinity of colour afforded by limited palettes, and the work references this prairie girl’s ongoing astonishment at western Canada’s expansive spaces and impossibly long straight horizon lines.
