For the exhibition, 14 artist teams were invited to make works on paper and installations based on the quilt with underlying themes of interdependence and interconnectivity. A special addendum to this exhibition is a companion show at Traywick Contemporary featuring new work by Lena Wolff and several artists from the Paper Quilt Project.
