I think we instinctively know when we see something really special. It not only speaks to us but moves us and often stays with us long after the experience. This is how I felt went I experienced Simone Elizabeth Saunders’s exhibition U.N.I.T.Y at the Textile Museum of Canada in 2022. This artist’s tufting work made such an impression on me that I have continued to follow her work and achievements since seeing the exhibition. I am happy to report that she is garnering well-deserved recognition in several arenas. I recently caught up with her to ask what’s new.
