Pat Williams Has Stories to Tell
Curated by Tommye McClure Scanlin
“Pat Williams presents visual narratives with her tapestries. She creates worlds and populates them with beings that seem at times to be puzzled or perplexed at their situations. Some are recognizably human, while others are anthropomorphized shapes reminiscent of fantastical plant, insect, or animal creatures. The stories contained within her tapestries are likewise often puzzling; while they often make one laugh aloud, there is always one more aspect, as viewers first find the humor and then notice an unease or poignancy within the stories.”
– Tommye McClure Scanlin
