Art Installation Piece, July 2005: Paper Quilt and Bedroom Scene
This is an installation piece created in July 2005 as part of a paper making class. In this piece paper was created using old clothing and then reconstituted in fabric patches to create a quilt. The piece was performed outside with a bedroom scene.
Notice how Megan is sewing the piece, and the bed and dresser are empty. The scene is a depiction of a missing mother. The bed and the dresser included pieces from Megan's own mother's room and they were setup to mimics the actual bedroom as accurately as possible.
The piece after installation received critical acclaim and is currently on display at the Northern Illinois University Art Building on the second floor across from the art gallery
Below are close up pictures of the fabric to demonstrate the texture and grains. Remember that the material used is a form of paper.
