Valerie Goodwin is a quilt artist inspired by mapping and architectural forms, which she abstracts and uses to create what is essentially a fabric collage.
I was attracted to the apparent complexity in this quilt which appears to have been created by applying lots of small fabric pieces to the background. This suggested to me that I may be able to create my ‘complex’ paper collage in a similar fashion with smaller areas of colour interacting with each other, and lots of detail. It also highlights how you could move fairly seamlessly from collage with paper to collage with textile.
