Fay Stanford, Fiber Optics: Woodcuts on Cotton

 

Philadelphia printmaker Fay Stanford showed her fabulist banners within two galleries. 

​

Stanford creates wry fairy tales about suburban family life — especially death, disease and aging. Her work on dementia has been called “an eye opener” and “an outstanding achievement.” (Philadelphia Inquirer, 2011).

​

Since the early 2000s, Stanford has transitioned from painter to printmaker. This is her first show executed entirely on fabric — a process in which she carves on wood, prints on cotton cloth, and sews her creations into quilt-like banners.
