Woven in Time

Woven in Time features the wearable art creations of renowned Canadian fabric artist Evelyn Roth animated by her ‘moving sculpture company’ of dancers in collaboration with filmmaker Tony Westman. Evelyn won an ‘Etrog’ in the Best Art Direction category at the 1977 Canadian Film Awards for this timeless artistic classic. The allegorical visual narrative presents transformations of creatures that emerge from the sea, moving onto a vast desert landscape, then into a cocoon state only to be re-born into a lush landscape of color and eventual freedom.
