I am excited to announce my participation in "from the tongue," an exhibit about text-based work curated by the lovely Brooklyn embroiderer (and new mom), Joetta Maue.I will be exhibiting "Rose Hens," which is part of FiberGraf, my collaboration with graffiti artist, Jon Baker. For this piece, I scanned one of Jon's old drawings, printed it on fabric, and carefully covered his tag with French knots...This piece took months to make, and I am grateful it will soon be seen by many New Yorkers.
Details for the show:
Opening - June 24, 8-10pm
@ Lotus Gallery Space/34 North Moore Street
The exhibit will remain on view until August 6th.
There are 30 participating artists. I can't wait to be surrounded by "my people" at the opening - fellow embroiderers!
And if this isn't enough excitement, I am participating in the Center for Book Arts Summer Bene Fête on Wednesday, June 16th. The event takes place from 5-9pm and it's free -- a party with food, music, and the opportunity to see and purchase the work of some cutting-edge book artists.
The Center is located at 28 West 27th Street, 3rd Floor.
Accessible via the N/R/W to 28th Street; the F/V to 23rd Street, or the 1 to 28th Street.
Hope to see you at one of these events!!
