Artist at Work #12: Molly Hassler
Traditionally, quilting is a social or collective activity that requires the piecing together of many parts. For Molly Hassler, quilting is a metaphor for a supportive community, a world, populated by friends, family, and mentors. In one of her latest projects, she juxtaposes a quilt inspired by the quiltmakers of Gee’s Bend with a drawing on silk of a friend and their dog.
