SUMMARY:Patricia Guthrie: Get Up Stand Up
DESCRIPTION:Patricia Guthrie\, Flood\, 2021\, Hand Painted\, Machine Pieced\, Machine Quilted\, 72” wide x 69” high\, Photo Beverly Tucker \nOne purpose of art is to support and communicate political messages. Using color\, letters\, and shapes\, Patricia Guthrie’s abstract quilts deliver political messages relating to the government\, international relationships\, and global warming. She creates artwork using cotton fabric\, wool batting\, dyes\, and machine stitching. \nBio:\nAfter retiring as a professor and department chair of Human Development and Women’s Studies at California State University East Bay\, Patricia Guthrie decided to actively engage in the visual arts.
