This quilt explores an extraordinary event I experienced while looking out a jet window at the sunrise. The texts appearing in the work, by the artist and by William James (from The Varieties of Religious Experience), describe and comment on the experience. Both text and design suggest that there are different levels of reality, and many possible interpretations of those differences.
