Ian Berry, the Da Vinici of Denim, has taken time out of his busy schedule to discuss his work with SAQA and Textile Talks. You've most likely seen some of Ian's work, creating beautiful landscapes, portraits, and even his own living room, exclusively out of denim. Hear what he has to say about his process and be inspired.

From the Quilt Alliance:

"Like Tracey Emin, Grayson Perry, and Chuck Close before him, Berry is pushing the boundaries of Textiles as a medium," writes Fiona McCarthy of the Sunday Times. Denim is Ian Berry's medium for seeing the world.

Textile Talks features weekly presentations and panel discussions from the International Quilt Museum, the Modern Quilt Guild, Quilt Alliance, San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles, Studio Art Quilt Associates and Surface Design Association.

This Textile Talks originally aired on Wednesday, April 13, 2022. Future installments are held online at 2 p.m. Eastern (11 a.m. Pacific) each Wednesday.
