After a painting hiatus of several months, Barbara Campbell Thomas embarked on an image-making journey that combined found, patchworked orphan blocks sent to her by her mother, pieces of fabric and spray-painted canvas from her studio, and white quilting thread on unprimed canvas. Working in an intensely explorative, open-ended way, she stitched and sewed in the early morning hours while meditating on the ongoing pandemic, her sons’ well-being, and glorious memories from the past. In this activity of immense absorption, circles, arches, and rays emerged and with them the remembrance of a specific place and time: the Basilica of San Miniato in Florence, seven years ago. “Siderum,” a title and artwork that refers to “all the stars, all the galaxies, all and infinite possibilities,” evokes a sense of mystery grounded in symmetry, rhythm, cycles, and bound in togetherness.
