It is the name of a Hollywood movie, filmed in 1955, which made location shots in Hong Kong where I was a high school student. It planted the seed of questioning the integration of the east and the west, which has become a significant theme in my work. Since I began using threads more than forty years ago, I have always considered this material performing the role of the East. As I was developing the pieces for this exhibition, I am happy to say am that I still in love with threads as a means of my personal expression, hence the title for the whole exhibition&#8230; Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing indeed!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>November 1 \u2013 December 2, 2012<\/strong><br \/>\nOpening: Saturday, November 3, 2-4 pm<\/p>\n<p><strong>DAVID KAYE GALLERY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>questioning the integration of the east and the west<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/?p=16007\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":15997,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16007","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-listings_archive"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16007","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=16007"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16007\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16928,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16007\/revisions\/16928"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/15997"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=16007"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=16007"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artoronto.ca\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=16007"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
