Speaking upon feelings of anger, fear, loss, wonder, sadness, and anxiousness, this body of work relays a message of heartbreak, growth, and resilience. Dallis says, “With passing time and self-care, I can confidently speak my narrative and release the negative energy and channel it into beautiful works of art.” CLICK HERE FOR A FLYER WITH MORE INFORMATION
Upcoming Exhibitions
North Gallery “Shawn Delker: On the Edge” Painting with thread – Fiber arts guest artist exhibit
5.3.2025 through 7.5.2025
MEET THE ARTISTS RECEPTION – Sat. 5/3 from 5PM TO 7pm: Free for Members; $10 for non-members.
Fiber artist Shawn Marie Delker learned the joy of sewing on her mom’s knee at the age of five and has been stitching ever since. She began quilting in 2000, and soon discovered art quilting. Since then, she has developed a technique that could be called “painting with thread. ”She says, “My sewing machine is my brush and thread is my paint. Each of my art pieces is unique because it is totally hand done.”
Artist Statement:
Being “on the edge” of something can have multiple meanings; we can be on the edge of discovery, at the edge of our wits, or at a tipping point of choices. Sometimes these all happen at same time.
My body of work for this exhibition attempts to show the contemporary female at the edge of discovery, while trying to negotiate her way to gender equality. My pieces show both the joy and the raw, raveled, tangled, messy experience of being on the edge of change. Some of my creations are made from recycled linens that were created through time-consuming handwork women did to decorate their homes, with all pieces having exposed edges. The ragged edges of the vintage linen reflect the difficulty of change, yet that new form is also beautiful and freeing. I created other pieces entirely from thread, “painting” with thousands of stitches – these are used to show the joy of being free to reach one’s potential without constraints due to gender.
