Gallery : some things looming
Show: ENTANGLED
Name of fiber artwork accepted into the show include:
“Unfinished” and ” Where Ends Meet“
Our daily lives are complex and miraculous. There is an ever-expanding interconnectedness that we have with one another in both our private and public lives. This interconnectedness can also feel overwhelming and pressure-filled. Communications can be ‘jumbled’ and misunderstood in a text ‘thread’, for example. Our relationships are complicated- family, friend, foe. ‘some things looming’ invited artists to connect with our audience as they interpret “Entangled” utilizing fiber techniques.
Exhibit Dates: Sept 11th to October 24th, 2015
