Veronika Olivier shares how she combines recycled fabrics, threads, and unexpected materials such as plastics with traditional art mediums like oil paint and pastels. Veronika's work blurs the line between fine art and textile art, transforming soft materials into richly textured, painterly surfaces.
She’ll talk about how she builds her layered compositions, how color and texture interact, and how unconventional materials can bring new depth to textile art. Through Veronika's process, she hopes to inspire others to see fabric and thread as expressive tools equal to paint and brush.
Textile Talks features weekly presentations and panel discussions from the International Quilt Museum, Quilt Alliance, Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA), and Surface Design Association. The programs are held online at 2 p.m. Eastern (11 a.m. Pacific) each Wednesday.
