The rugs created with TTW Editions were fabricated for Crystal's June 2023 solo show, FINE HOUSE, at Paradigm Gallery.
"The exhibition features eight tapestry paintings depicting moments of power, such as bears in battle, and reinterprets them through a delicate process and medium by using acrylics, gold leaf, pastel crayon, and cotton fiber tassels. Latimer chose to work with local creative businesses, Tuft the World and Butterfield Editions, to create three collaborative pieces. Rugs produced by Tuft the World, and wallpaper printed in-house by Butterfield Editions at the Paradigm Arts Building will be the first instances of Crystal Latimer’s work crossing over into other creative disciplines." -Paradigm Gallery
