Pauline Barrett is an award-winning fiber and textile fine art quilter whose work has been exhibited locally in the state of Texas, nationally and internationally. Her art is about color and texture and emulating the look of a painting while using fabric and thread. Her fiber art has been featured at the Florida Museum of Natural History, the South Carolina State Museum, the McMinn County Living Heritage Museum in Athens, Tennessee, at International Quilt week in Yokohama Japan, the University of Johannesburg, South Africa and is now in the permanent collection of the National Quilt Museum in Paducah, Kentucky, to mention a few. In 2011 she also had the privilege of having her work published in 'Lone Stars III: A Legacy of Texas Quilts' dating from 1986 – 2011.
As an artist working with fiber as her medium, she transforms pieces of fabric into beautiful, textured works of art. Her inspiration comes not only from current observations in her daily life but from past experiences and stories passed down from generations before her.
She is drawn to the tactile nature of fabrics and her goal is to allow viewers a chance to see her vision and possibly take away something completely unexpected.
