In the Artist’s personal collection.
A photo of my father’s family on vacation in 1956 is the inspiration for this blanket. The photo was taken in Blairmore, Alberta. Of all our belongings, blankets are the ones who carry memories that are made close to our hearts. They keep us warm when we are sick, they comfort us when we are tired. They are sometimes carried for security and sometimes for honour. New life might begin under a blanket, then follow that person through their seasons and into to the next generation. Blankets shape-shift to accommodate our requests - whether worn, draped or hung on a wall.
NFS - This blanket is part of my personal collection.
