SUMMARY:"All Stitched Up"
DESCRIPTION:I am thrilled and honored to be showing my work “Prairie”  in “All Stitched Up”\nAn international juried book arts exhibition\nSeptember 3rd – December 11th\, 2019\nSeptember 14th – opening celebration\nCollins Memorial Library University of Puget Sound\, Tacoma\, WA \n \n \n \n“To stitch is to join together\, to mend\, or fasten as with stitches – to sew. To stitch is to bring together fabric\, paper\, wounds of the body\, or cultural divides. Stitching can be an act of healing\, hope\, practicality\, creativity\, and revolution. All Stitched Up recognizes and celebrates the work of book artists’ where stitching has become an integral part of the visual design. Curators Catherine Alice Michaelis\, Jane A. Carlin\, and Diana Weymar will jury the show and a print catalogue will be created. \nWe are particularly (but not solely) interested in works that showcase collaboration and focus on building a sense of shared community. That may include collaboration between two or more artists\, two or more communities\, or crowd-sourced projects. Sewing that joins people and ideas link us to historical social and political sewing circles from the abolitionist movement of the 1800s\, to the corporate resistant DIY movement kindled by the Riots Grrrls in the 1990s\, to the knitting collectives of today that focus on the anti-war\, pro-science\, and pro-choice movements. In addition\, you may draw inspiration from the embroidered books of the Victorian period\, the rise of needlecrafts during the Arts & Crafts period\, and family traditions of sewing by machine or hand stitching. \nThis exhibition will include pages from Diana Weymar’s Interwoven Stories project. This includes Refashioning Identity\, which was created by members of the Puget Sound community in 2016/17 as facilitated by Weymar.” —All Stitched Up \n
