Event Details
Join Emilee Enders, Curator of Exhibitions and Programs, Bedford Gallery, Lesher Center for the Arts, for a guided gallery tour of “A Beautiful Mess”.
Enders will walk attendees through the twisting, tying, and braiding processes used by the 11 female artists in the exhibition. The stunning works push the boundaries of fiber art and elevate the traditional status of weaving, knotting, and macramé, using tactile and utilitarian materials.
Enders will examine the works through the retelling of the profoundly personal and powerful stories of the artists and the societal traditions and norms we honor — but also, those traditions and norms that need to be addressed or eradicated. The tour will end with a discussion of the fiber arts renaissance currently taking place in the contemporary art world, questions are welcome throughout.
