Statement

"I am building my own visual vocabulary from the tradition of domestic textiles. By working with the familiar to express the personal, I find a broader and more universal language. Recognition leads to understanding as the viewers can see their own lives within the art of another."

Mary Cain

Reviews

Barb Christensen, Duluth, Minnesota: "Very nice web-site. I think you are multi-talented. Nicely done!"

"A sense of joy in the possibilities of the materials dominates the fiberart of Mary Cain. Her pieces explore and expand the rich tradition of textile ideas from which she draws. In THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS, with its juxtaposed fabrics, she gives light itself a mysterious, ethereal quality."
