The Art of the Quilt: Fiber & Clay

Gloria Gammage Davis, Artist

AAHMSNJ Atlantic City | Stockton University's Noyes Arts Garage

Exhibit Dates: February 1 to March 30, 2024

Meet the Artist Reception: Saturday, February 3 from 2 to 5 PM

Davis puts the focus on African American history and culture in her fine art quilt creations. Ms. Davis’ thought provoking compositions employ the techniques of classic needle artistry but deconstruct the form of the familiar rectangular quilt with the use of organic inclusions, abstract shapes, sculptural forms, embroidered text, and African symbology. She uses written and embroidered text, block prints, and colorful African textiles to refine the messages of race and heritage in her artwork.

Davis has exhibited nationally and throughout the region. Her quilts are included in the publications "We Are the Story" (2021), and "Black Pioneer Legacy in the American West" (2022). The multi-talented assemblage artist is a graduate of Cheyney State University of Pennsylvania.
