8738 - The Power of Transition ($55)

Michele Bilyeu
Salem, OR USA

Width: 11.75" Length: 9"

Designer: Original design

Materials/Techniques: Cotton fabrics, soy wax crayons, fabric paint and glitter, free motion stitching and beading on the back.

Artist Statement: Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote, "Power resides in the moment of transition from a past to a new state." We can see this in the changes of life, of time, and in the states of being from birth to death. Yet, even Alzheimer's disease cannot take away from the true power of the human spirit as it seeks to evolve by disintegration, into a reintegration we cannot always see, or understand.
