And did I like the The Battle Ground Project currently on display at the Textile museum?
Yes, I'd say so. These images and more have been catalogued on the Textile Museum's site.
It also should be pointed out that this exhibition is sponsored by the National Post, the same newspaper that recently published an article by one of their resident retards (or maybe she was a freelance moron) that called for the ending of government funding for arts & culture, a bit disingenuous of them since they are happy to reap the tax breaks from their sponsorship of a cultural event such as this.
Perhaps it's money well spent in their minds because the Related Programs and Events include:
Talk: Dogs in War Cinnamon was a military camp mascot on a US Military Base in Afghanistan. Just a puppy, she had found her way into the hearts of many of the service men and women stationed there. One in particular, LCDR Mark Feffer worried for her future when most of the troops who cared for her were due to rotate out of the region. Who would care for her then? Christine Sullivan founded New Hope for Animals with her brother Mark Feffer to raise money for animals in need. She is the author of 44 Days Out Of Kandahar: The Amazing Journey of a Missing Military Puppy and the Desperate Search to Find Her.I love puppies, but this won't work, war isn't cute. (and those pesky arms-length arts juries would probably fund some crabby lefty artist who doesn't think war is cute either)
