Wish You Were Here is a special event that will allow people from all over the world to participate in the construction of the Vital Lines tapestry. If you live far from the beautiful hills of the Leighton Art Centre, send us your wishes. On Sunday August 18, Patricia and Sabine will inscribe a ribbon for you and weave it into the tapestry. If you do live in the area, please come by and help the artists to add the submitted wishes to the tapestry.
Vital Lines is a land-based installation conceived by Calgary francophone artists Sabine Lecorre-Moore and Patricia Lortie, who together form the artistic duo known as Conversation. They have designed this interactive installation specifically for the Leighton Art Centre landscape, creating an artwork that offers a receptive site where visitors can rest their dreams, wishes and life affirmations. The community is invited to contribute to the Vital Lines tapestry by customizing ribbons and then weaving them into the original structure. Not only will doing so pay homage to Barbara Leighton’s fibre art practice, it will also allow the artwork to evolve in form and meaning over its five-month lifespan.
