Artist’s Statement
| Jewel uses a duel perspective created by the hues of the diamonds. You glance at the composition, and the girl appears to be on a stage. At next glance, she appears to be against the back wall of the stage. The Chinese girl sparkles like a jewel, the facets of the stage remind me of a jewel, and the curtains are decorated with jewels, so I titled the quilt Jewel. |
