October 27 – November 19, 2022
presented at the Kathryn Schultz Gallery
A textile focused juried exhibit, featuring New England artists
Opening Reception + Talk: Friday, October 28, 6:00-8:00pm, at the Kathryn Schultz Gallery
About the theme: This exhibition showcases works that employ structural, textile techniques (woven, knitted, crocheted, plaited, knotted, basket structures, bobbin lace, felt-making, braiding, quilting) and derivations of these structures. Emphasis is placed on a nontraditional, redefinition of these processes in materials, approaches to technique and application.
