Ode to Newfoundland


This is a hooked rug that was made with Maya for a show in conjunction with Festival 500 (an international choral festival in St. John's every other year). It depicts a coastal scene that is inspired by the Newfoundland Anthem called "the Ode to Newfoundland". You'll see that there is an abstract figure running through the horizontal middle that follows the melody line of the anthem...with harmony lines coming off of it (in different colours representing the different choirs/voices, culturally representation at the festival, etc.).
