POWERS CONCEALED with Beverly Smith

 

In this episode, I sit down with textile artist Beverly Smith and we discuss how making quilts can often be like a magic carpet ride, how our work can exist on the physical plane as well as higher planes, and how memory lives beyond trauma, buried safe in our hearts and minds. (Heads up: Around minute 26, we briefly touch the topic of suicide and how it has influenced Beverly’s work.) You can see what we were sewing on while we chatted and a few of Beverly’s pieces in the images. Get the companion SEAMSIDE zine here.
