Central Booking, 2011
36" x 36"
Stenciled and commercially available fabrics. Machine pieced, hand quilted. Photo credit: D. James Dee.
Made for the fifth Manhattan Quilters Guild's traveling exhibition, Material Witnesses.
Updates the traditional quilt design of a diamond in a square. It also continues the legal theme suggested by the exhibition's title: central booking is where the newly arrested are brought and held before arraignment. The central QR code and stenciled text in the corners together spell out the first sentence of The Trial, Kafka's nightmarish tale of bureaucratic and legal injustice.
