Orly Cogan





I went to Judy Chicago's retrospective in Calgary entitled "If Women Ruled the World," and found the lovely gem that is Orly Cogan's threadbare work featured in "She Will Always Be Younger." Her work bridged the aesthetic of the traditional with that of the transgressive and political and explicitly engaged with feminist politics through the use of textile, thread and fibre. Such an inspiration to the future crafty stitch and bitch feminist i aspire to be one day!
