PLAYING WITH DIMENSIONS 2009

"Dimensions is the showcase for the very best Fine Craft produced in Saskatchewan,” said past SCC Board Chair Ken Wilkinson. “The 35 pieces on display were selected from 148 entries and show the best work in craft mediums ranging from woodworking to jewellery, from textiles to ceramics.” Dimensions is the SCC’s open, juried, touring exhibition of Fine Saskatchewan Craft. This year’s jurors were Mel Bolen from Humboldt, Saskatchewan and Chantal Gilbert from Quebec, QC. Both jurors are nationally respected and known for their unique, experimental work.
