Cancer Healing Quilts: Fiber Artists @ Loose Ends
A University of Michigan "Gifts of Art" Exhibit
CANCER HEALING QUILTS Fiber Artists at Loose Ends The Fiber Artists @ Loose Ends created the fine art quilts in this exhibit to provide education and a pleasing environment for patients, visitors, scientists and staff at the U-M Health System. Under the theme of plants and animals that are used in chemotherapy treatments, each fiber artist brought her own individual style, interpretation and experience to the idea of cancer healing. Each quilt has an accompanying artist statement and description of the subject matter of the pieces, including scientific information about the natural subject's medicinal applications for cancer patients.
