This is one in a series of posts featuring an artist whose work is included in the Threads of Resistance exhibition.
Artist’s Statement:
This quilt was made to honor the 3 million women who marched globally
the day after President Trump was inaugurated. I wanted to give the viewer a
feeling for just how big 3 million is. Each little square is ½ inch and
represents 325 people. That is equivalent to a large jet airplane filled with
people. So imagine a full airplane for each one of these tiny squares! It is A
LOT of people, all marching to protect the rights of women!
