About the Project

Stitching Stories Reimagined is a collaborative public artwork by North Carolina artists Eliza Redmann, Carlos Gonzalez, David Wilson, and Owens Daniels, inspired by a quilt created by four incarcerated women at the North Carolina Correctional Institute for Women. Now installed at Dix Park, the 30‐foot piece transforms the original quilt’s narratives into an immersive experience using mosaic, mirrored surfaces, and custom vinyl design. Through these elements, the artists invite visitors to reflect on the experiences of the 62 women whose stories shape the project.
