Digitally manipulated image on printed onto silk, monoprinted calico, representing the ridges of the corrugated iron.
Machine pieced, handstitched.
The inspiration for this art quilt came from the passion I have with corrugated iron. I love taking photographs of rusty old iron walls and sheds. My studio in Lilyfield was opposite The Old Broom Factory in Rozelle. This a photocopy of the main wall of the factory, that my studio looked onto. We still use broom heads and brushes that Norm Martin the owner gave me.
Oh, I’ve got a great collection of brooms and brushes from Norm’s place. He used to give them to me. "Try them out", he’d say "Let me know if they are any good!" Suzie Cheel, neighbour to broom factory, 84 Foucart Lane, January 1997.
- Jeanne Gehue The broom factory in Rozelle formed the subject of her honours thesis.

About My ArtMy art work combines digital imagery, manipulated from my painted work and personal photography, with transfer mediums, collage and hand stitched overlays. The layering and patterning that has been distinctive in my painting, I now incorporate in new ways through computer-manipulated images, transfer prints, monoprinting and stitching, combining age-old handicraft with new technology. The sea and land patterns continue to influence my work along with patterns and pathways that reflect both personal and spiritual change. |
