Artist Statement: 
My work straddles the space between chance and intention. I print my fabric on a gelatin plate using plants I find on my walks or packaging repurposed from the grocery store. I layer the images responding to whatever is already on my fabric. When the printing is done I lay out my fabrics on the floor and ideas begin to percolate. This past year climate change and pollution have been dominating my thoughts whether it is melting sea ice or seas filled with plastic. I don’t think in terms of narrative or illustration, but rather through the emotional impact of shape, color and texture. I hope people react to my quilts on a visceral level.

​Artist Bio: 
Agusta began making quilts as a painting major at Massachusetts College of Art. Concurrently she created silkscreened posters which received local, national and international recognition at the Graphic Workshop. Many of her pastel landscapes are in numerous corporate collections. She worked as an art teacher for 22 years. The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston acquired one of her quilts in 2017.
