Elsa K Fiber Arts

Wall hanging depicting the passage from birth to death.

 

Original design. This quilt was created after a near death/out of body experience I had in 1999. It took three years to start the work on it and another five to let it go. It depicts the passage of life from birth, lower right hand corner, to death, upper left hand corner. There was a similarly lighted tableau at the foot of my hospital bed the night I awoke from coma. There were flashes on the wall that I thought were a slide show of my life and that when the bright square in the upper left flashed, I would float through it and be gone. Obviously, it didn’t flash.
