FIBER ANTHEMS

Fiber Anthems is a regional, invitational exhibition of 15 artists who use fibrous materials or fiber techniques in their artworks. A national anthem represents an entire country while a personal anthem is an individual’s song. Here these songs are visual, reflecting personal convictions, identity, and hopes. It shows ‘What matters?  What deserves attention now?’ Many of the works were created specifically for this exhibition and will have their premier here.

The scope of work in this exhibit includes fiber materials from plants and animals, threads, cloth, paper, felt, dyes, and two- and three-dimensional artwork. There are multiple forms, representational and conceptual pieces, capturing some breadth of fiber art.

Marilyn Robert and Barbara Setsu Pickett are co-curators. Their intent is to share their appreciation, and to widen community by gathering these distinct visual voices and finding common ground. This exhibition is an invitation for all to join the conversation.
