Threads: Stories and Histories through Textiles
November 1 - December 16, 2023
In Threads: Stories and Histories through Textiles, we meet four artists from different walks of life who use the material qualities of fibers and woven panels to tackle larger subjects. While strength, flexibility, and the process of attaching and detaching give textiles a practical role in everyday life, these same characteristics provide apt metaphors for encountering displacement, injustice, and adversity. Featured artists include Maria-Theresa Fernandes, Baltimore, MD; Lahib Jaddo, Lubbock, TX; Anthony Pabillano, Houston, TX, and Michelle Talibah, Baltimore, MD.
