Elverhoj 2016 - 2017
Layers of Perception
November 19, 2016 - February 5, 2017
Innovation in textile art and surface design
The jury-selected work on display represents unique approaches to textile art, where old ways and new technologies commingle. By challenging traditionally conceived “craft” materials and redefining their context, sourced items as varied as LED lights and vintage sheet music are reinvented, showcasing the role of textiles as a visually communicative and diverse art form. The artistic use of hand-dyes, paint, photographs, stamps, and a myriad of materials embellish and enhance the work.
Selected artists are: Diana Acevedo, Linda Cassirer, Isabel Downs, Linda Estrada, Ranell Hansen, Belinda Hart, Patti Hunter, Gay McNeal, Lorna Morck, Kristin Otte, Judy Rys, Patty Six, Lou Ann Smith, Jeanne Surber, and Susan West.
Exhibition programing includes five demonstration days highlighting various surface design techniques, and a holiday workshop.
