The Gallery at First Parish Church
Presents:

Dilla GOOCH Tingley
FABRICATIONS: ART FROM ANCIENT GREECE TO THE PRESENT REINTERPRETED IN FABRIC

At the First Parish Art Gallery - January 20, 2007 - March 08, 2007

Combine a creative temperament, an obsessive-compulsive personality and a fixation with fabric and you have GOOCH. She has been creating the fabric wall-hangings that hang in collections throughout the country since 1988. Windows and chairs, dragons and most recently, familiar artistic images have appeared in her work.
