FABRICation

Event Phone: (775) 784-4278
Admission Price: Free
Co-curated by Reni Gower, professor in the painting and printmaking department at Virginia Commonwealth University and Kristy Deetz, professor in art discipline at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, “FABRICation” features seven artists (Erin Castellan, Kristy Deetz, Virginia Derryberry, Reni Gower, Rachel Hayes, Susan Iverson and Natalie Smith) who incorporate a textile sensibility in their artwork through elements of fabric and fabrication. Gower stated, “The exhibition was inspired by a rich array of historical textiles from drapery to quilt. As such, the complex, multipart works contrast our culture's rampant media consumption with the redemptive nuance of slow work wrought by hand. Individual works range from delicate illusions to layered constructions to architectural interventions. Using a variety of materials that range from oil and acrylic paint, yarn, vintage clothing, aluminum screens, wool, silk, plastic, thread, vinyl, burlap, rug-hold, glass, recycled objects, and found fabrics, the artists interweave sensory pleasure with a repetitive process to invoke introspection and reflection." Funding for "FABRICation" was made possible in part by Virginia Commonwealth University, VCUarts, and the Painting and Printmaking Department. An opening reception and lecture will be held at 5 p.m. Nov. 3.
There are no events happening in the near future.
