Hello
All
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Proud
to announce an
exhibition with
my good friend Jessica
Slaven of
new, colorful
and visually
charged abstract
works on paper
at Gallery
263 in
Cambridge, MA.
In
our work the
processes of
weaving,
unweaving,
embroidering,
dyeing, and
sewing—typically
reserved for
fabrics and
fiber—have come
to inhabit our
drawing and
painting
practices. I
have used
inherited
clothing to
create quilts
and embroidered
pieces, and have
since moved
towards
examining the
weave structure
of fabric and
translating it
into 2-D. Sewing
was integral to
Jessica’s
sculptural work,
and for four
years she built
her career as a
commercial
textile
designer,
weaving and
putting textiles
into production.
Now, she adapts
those skills and
experiences for
painting.
