Carol's latest textile art pieces were recently shown at the
Garage Gallery. Here are some images of Kjersten Walker's installation. Many of these pieces are now being shown in
Carol's studio.

While working on these artifacts it became clear
that all my years designing and making clothing, layering and piecing remains of cloth, wrapping and stitching, easily translates
to smaller and more intimate work. My creative expression emerges within a similar context regardless of material choice.
Not such a great revelation, but I don't always recognize the obivious.
What has been interesting for me, as my hands reveal these forms and textures, is recognizing the influence of images
I have stored in my unconscious mind. This body of work unleashes my fascination with mummy bundles, silken webs, skeletal
structures and deteriorating surfaces.
