Many of you may have probably heard of the enormous loss in our community of Sigrid Dahle, a brilliant artist, writer, curator, teacher, mentor and friend. During her long, prolific career, she wrote several essays and curated multiple exhibitions at aceart, including after the gleaners; me, me, me, and me; and Play, Precarity, and Survival. As a way to honour her contributions to the community and offer our thanks, we invited Sigrid's close friend and fellow artist, Jeanne... Randolph, to write a short tribute. Jeanne then reached out to Sigrid's daughter, Emma Kusch Dahle. Thank you Jeanne and Emma for sharing your reminiscences of your dear friend and mother. We're with you in your time of grief.
