I am thrilled to participate in FIBER:
This international exhibition seeks to showcase the best of contemporary fiber art that reflect the breadth of functional or non-functional works that use fiber and/or fiber art techniques in traditional or innovative ways. Artwork in this exhibition may be made from natural or high tech materials that reference fiber and that blur the lines between art, architecture and craft. Please join us in the galleries on Saturday, June 7 for a captivating talk with Tom Grotta and Rhonda Brown.Tom Grotta and Rhonda Brown
Tom and Rhonda have showcased modern fiber art since the 1980s, championing fiber art’s evolution and future. Representing over 100 artists from 25 countries, the gallery’s exhibitions, art fairs, and partnerships with museums have placed works in prestigious collections like the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Smithsonian’s Renwick Gallery.
