<strong>The</strong> northern lights have been here forever; we<br />

Alberta Road, 2007<br />
Sonja Ohlmann (Leduc, AB)<br />
Commercial fabrics and batiks; quilted with thread painting on fused<br />
fabrics, pen and ink. 35" x 27"<br />
Have people not followed after one another for<br />
eons? Hutterites have not changed in several hundred<br />
years, so this scene could have happened literally<br />
yesterday, today, or tomorrow.<br />
Inspiration came from a Canadian Press photo of<br />
four Hutterite girls crossing a bridge on the Red<br />
Deer River – helping during a flood. Permission for<br />
artistic reference to the original photo received from the<br />
Canadian Press.
