Jill Glatt speaks to Qanita Lilla about her large textile pieces informed by local ecologies, community and sustainability. Her practice emphasises the pathways and airways that both seeds and people navigate before they settle. Jill’s work weaves storytelling and botanical dyes together in ways that bring the outside world into the museum space. In this episode, they talk about personal and artistic journeys and the joys of teaching art.
You have this iconic cultural item, the marigold, that is so deeply associated with a culture or a country, and it came from somewhere else. And it’s also a product of global trade and colonization, and movement and change and people flowing to different places around the world.
Jill Glatt is a Katarokwi/Kingston-based illustrator, printmaker, arts educator and teacher with the Limestone District School Board. Jill is also the Volunteer Coordinator for the Skeleton Park Arts Festival and sits on their board of directors as secretary. Her artistic practice is based around and informed by ecology, community and sustainability. Jill spends time with the land whenever she can and picks up lots of leaves along the way.
