POSTPONED 'Intertwined' Opening Reception

The history of textile and fiber arts is defined by transmission – the exchange of knowledge, custom, and practice from person to person, culture to culture, and generation to generation. Today, technology has fundamentally shaped the nature of these exchanges, impacting the creation, presentation, and interpretation of artistic traditions in unprecedented ways. Intertwined: Labor and Technology in Contemporary Textile Art calls attention to the dynamism of textile-related practice across various interdisciplinary lenses and media to explore themes of labor and agency that simultaneously highlight and subvert our expectations. Curated by Keidra Daniels Navaroli and Annie Booth, Intertwined features the work of Tawny Chatmon, Jeffrey Gibson, Fabiola Jean-Louis, Ahree Lee, Kate Nartker, Yvonne Osei, Aaron Rothman, Carrie Sieh, and Shaheer Zazai, with a critical focus on process and materiality. The exhibition is open from August 31st to December 16th, 2023.
