stitched and bound is WAQA’s contemporary quilting exhibition. It is a biennial juried exhibition showcasing the innovative range of current work being produced by Western Australian artists who challenge the usual concept of the ‘quilt’ medium. Artists are encouraged to work outside the quilt format and push the boundaries of the medium focusing on making personal statements through the use of unconventional materials, ideas and techniques. Pieces to be exhibited are selected on artistic merit, innovation within the quilt medium and standard of design and execution. Typically, 30 - 40 works are chosen by three independent jurors for showing.
