Rachael in an exhibition in Canberra, Australia

[Jennifer Thompson]

Hi everyone :-)
Just thought I'd let you all know that my web page about "Down Syndrome and
our Family" has been given some very special treatment by a fabric artist
here in Australia.

Sharon Boggon is a textile artist who lives and works in Canberra,
Australia. A few months back she approached me via email to ask if she
could utilise my web pages in an exhibition she was creating. She has now
completed her work and "Playing False" will shown at the CRAFT ACT GALLERY,
1 Aspinall St, Watson, Canberra from 03-28September 1997.

Sharon's exhibition combines her love of textile art, embroidery, and the
internet and you can have a look at the works on her web site at :

http://online.anu.edu.au/english/jems/sharon/welcome.html (follow the link
to "Playing False"). You can also leap from her piece using Rachael's
image and my words to my own page.

Anyway, this is quite exciting for me and I'm hoping to make the trip down
to Canberra (about 4hrs drive) while the exhibition is on to see it for
myself :-)

With regards

How impressive this piece is, what an honor for Jennifer's web page to
become incorporated in a piece of artwork! I loved the concept and
visiting the pages that inspired the piece.

This is wonderful Jennifer, congratulations. I checked out the page and was
most impressed. Also a bonus for me because it will be here in Canberra. If
you do get down to Canberra to see the exhibition please let me know.
