An exciting follow-up to RED
From Hello Stitch about the exhibition:
The orange circle quilt on the poster for this show hung on the wall of Roderick Kiracofe's Quilt Barn for quite awhile. The “worn-ness” of the binding and its overall softness shows it was washed and used often. It was fun to look at it and the bright orange color gave it boldness, but in Roderick's mind, other quilts in his collection outshone it. Not until he posted it on Instagram and received an overwhelming response in likes and comments, did he come to see it in a new light. He looked through the collection and discovered others that had various amounts of orange fabrics scattered through or used prominently.
And so, the Orange show was conceived! What better color to follow his previous Hello Stitch exhibition, RED, than with the bold and beautiful color ORANGE?
Roderick Kiracofe is an art collector, author, publisher, curator, and possesses an eye for beauty in all forms. In addition to all of this, he’s considered to be a pretty nice guy. His new classic book, Unconventional & Unexpected, will be re-released as a Second Edition at the end of 2021.
