Kathyanne White Kathyanne White creates textile collages using her own hand-dyed fabrics that she cuts, assembles and machine-stitches onto canvas. Inspired by nature, the imagery ranges from silhouetted tree limbs against a desert sky to abstract variations on a leaf motif. The artist's textiles have been shown in numerous juried exhibitions including Quilted Constructions: The Spirit of Design at the Museum of American Folk Art, New York (followed by a two year international tour), and Fine Fiber: Art for the 21st Century at SOFA Chicago 2001. Her piece Rambunctious was accepted into the permanent collection of the American Craft Museum, New York, and will be shown during 2002 in the exhibit Six Continents of Quilts: The American Craft Museum Collection. The artist has works in many private and public collections including the First American Discount Corporation, Chicago; St. Francis Hospital, Evanston, IL; and Los Abrigados Resort, Sedona, AZ.               For current availability of pieces, please contact the gallery.
