Theme for 2024: Art Movements
The arrival of entries for the Ozquilt Network virtual exhibition was like opening a box of treasures. Each unique art quilt is an expression of individuality but with an identifiable link to the theme of ART MOVEMENTS.
The influence of MODERNISM, the art styles of the late 1800’s to the early 1900’s and POST MODERNISM, the art of mid to late 1900’s, were evident in the art quilts. Within those overlapping art movements, many varied styles have been used for inspiration. For the purposes of this virtual exhibition, the entries have been presented in two generic categories, abstract expressionism and figurative expressionism.
Congratulations to the participants for accepting the challenge and presenting such inspirational art quilts.

Theme for 2023: Memories of Childhood
Thank you to all members who responded to the call for entries for Memories of Childhood virtual exhibition. It was an opportunity to reflect on our childhood memories, of places where we grew up, memories of grandparents and watching families grow. For some members, it was a time of sadness and loss.
The exhibition of quilts is grouped in four sections:
- Childhood memories of place
- Childhood connections to objects or nature
- Childhood emotions
- Childhood memories of family members
Enjoy!
Robyn Clout: Curator, Memories of Childhood
