Curators' Notes - Allison Wilbur
"Fiber Arts have long been woven into our history and culture as an integral part of daily life. From utilitarian pieces such as clothing and bedding to decorative arts, women in particular have expressed themselves through fiber. Today's contemporary fiber artists take time honored techniques and traditions and elevate and reshape them to create new forms that reflect our ever changing world." This exhibit focuses on Rhode Island-based contemporary fiber artists breaking new ground in their field.
