YVONNE WELLS 1939-

Wells is celebrated for her bold, narrative “story quilts” depicting biblical tales, Civil Rights history, and social themes. Since 1979, she has developed a distinctive, un- patterned style using found fabrics. She earned national recognition through works in major museum collections, a 2024 monograph, and honors such as the Joan Mitchell Fellowship and the Alabama Governor’s Arts Award.
