Quilting As Art

Alma Alloro is an artist based in Berlin. After inheriting her grandmother's sewing machine 8 years ago she adopted the technique of quilting as part of her art practice. Since then she has developed an original approach to quilt making and exhibited art installations around the world in which patchwork quilts function as paintings and are also used as footage materials for moving images. Her approach is playful and experimental but also based upon a basic fundamental skill set. Alma has been giving quilting workshops in various settings including Berlin Sewing Saloon, in her studio, and others.
