Modella Gallery is pleased to present ‘de.light/FULL’, a group show of art quilts made by the members of the Studio Art Quilt Associates from Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, and Indiana. The exhibition runs from Nov. 7th through Dec. 14th, 2019, with the opening reception from 6-8 p.m. on Sun., Nov. 10th. In this exhibit the artists use textiles to express the primary theme of ‘delight’ and ‘abundance’ in a creative or innovative way. The artists were encouraged to interpret their own sense of ‘de.light/FULL’ using abstract, graphic, or representational styles and themes. Whether amusing, entertaining, or exuberant, de.light/FULL art quilts may be perceived from multiple perspectives.
