See "Light and Movement: Works by Marianne R. Williamson" at the New England Quilt Museum
A new exhibit entitled Light and Movement, focusing on the works of Marianne R. Williamson, is now open at the New England Quilt Museum. "Light and movement have been recurring themes in Williamson’s work for nearly 45 years since she embraced textiles as her artistic medium. Williamson’s work reflects a life dedicated to art and a mastery of diverse fiber art techniques." See these stunning quilts while you can, because the exhibit closes in less than a month.
From the New England Quilt Museum:
"Light and movement have been recurring themes in Williamson’s work for nearly 45 years since she embraced textiles as her artistic medium. A classical education in art from L’Ecole des Beaux Arts in Geneva, Switzerland provided a solid foundation for the painterly qualities of her distinctive scenes of sunlit gardens, windswept landscapes, ripples on water and ocean waves.
Williamson’s work reflects a life dedicated to art and a mastery of diverse fiber art techniques. She ice dyes her cottons and silks, and applies hand-painted details, raw edge appliqué, layered textiles and free motion quilting. When viewed at a distance, Williamson’s art quilts are easily mistaken for paintings, a characteristic that has earned her national recognition, numerous awards and countless admirers."
Light and Movement: Works by Marianne R. Williamson is on display at the New England Quilt Museum in Lowell, MA from August 12, 2025 through September 6, 2025.
