Balancing on a Thread is the definitive biography of one of Canada's most internationally respected artists, Pat Martin Bates. "PMB" as she is known to everyone, is a uniquely flamboyant and charismatic figure, whose life is marked by a thirst for adventure: re-tracing the route of Alexander the Great, sailing as a deckhand on a replica of Darwin's Barque, or camping by the by the tomb of the 13th century Persian poet Rumi. Building on these experiences, she created a body of magical, compelling work that combines complex ideas, philosophies and mythologies with transformative new artistic techniques, many of which she pioneered herself.
