4949 - I Think My Brain Is Leaking

Marcia Strong Middents
Tempe, AZ    USA

Width: 9"   Length: 12"

Materials/Techniques: Hand painted fabric and trim. The word “eek” is thread-written into the quilting surrounding the face.

Artist's Statement: I frequently feel that my mind is more like a steel sieve, than a steel trap. That frustration is the inspiration for this quilt that illustrates how I think a person in the early stages of Alzheimer’s must feel…perplexed, annoyed, frightened, and worried about “brain leakage”.
Marcia Strong Middents

Dedication: To those working on a solution to plug the leaks.

This quilt is displayed with Fast Finish Triangles.
