At a distance, the piecing of this quilt looks very traditional, an even grid of blues. Upon closer inspection, however, the viewer discovers that each section of the outer grid is constructed uniquely. This creates variation within the same. I was inspired to make this grid as a representation of the expansiveness of an ocean, in part by Agnes Martin. This work references the endlessness of water, and the latitude and longitude lines we use to corral it.
