To Hang with the Best

All is Vanity by Ingrid Mida 2011
Although it feels like I've not had much studio time lately, the universe has aligned to suggest that I start making the time. I was asked to participate in Toronto Image Work's Hang with the Best Show which opens today at their gallery in 80 Spadina Avenue in Toronto.  As well, photos from my All is Vanity series will appear in an art book being put together by the team at Artsync (If you missed my interview on Artsync, you can watch it here). And finally, the lovely Emma from Oxford, England fell in love with my Masquerade series and has ordered two of these type of works. I haven't done any embroidery in what seems like ages but I rediscovered that stitching is like meditation!

Your Masquerade series is just stunning! I am sorry that I missed them. I adore toile de jouey, and the figures are just so vivid and captivating.

What a great and inspiring blog! Every time I leave the country it's the first I hit up. (Unfortunately, it's blocked in China.)

Bravo Ingrid. What delicious accolades, all well and truly deserved. I always thought the "All is Vanity" collection would make a spectacular impact in a very cool, very hip Soho Hotel (London, or New York) hanging just above a very sleek headboard and inviting all manner of interpretation. They are the baking powder of fanciful dreams.
