Ian Capstick’s creative evolution spans from theatrical performance and prop making to a high-stakes career as a political pundit and creative director. After years of advocating for marginalized voices in Canada’s capital through his agency, MediaStyle, Capstick transitioned into fiber arts, finding a new medium in "quilty banners". His work intentionally blurs the historical divide between fine art and craft, challenging the perception that textiles are merely decorative or domestic. Drawing from a pop art sensibility, his banners utilize bold, graphic communication to deliver clear political messages, influenced by his background in political soundbites and public policy advocacy.
