With more and more textile art exhibitions springing up around the world I’m hoping to bring you news about ones that catch my eye. The tactile nature of textile art can never be reproduced online but the skill, creativity, subject matter and composition can be, so I’m thrilled to share with you a fabulous exhibiton at Atlantic Gallery in New York. Tenuous Threads is a two-part exhibition featuring over 100 artists using fiber and mixed media. 

Curated by Patricia Miranda, Tenuous Threads ‘alludes to the delicate lines that bring us together and set us apart: that join us yet repel us.’ I’ve been lucky enough to interview some of the featured artist. Click on their names to see more of their work and read their interviews, they include Erica Green, Merill Comeau and Michael Rohde. 

 

Tenuous Threads Part I until Feb 11th. Part II February 14th – March 4th, 2023 at Atlantic Gallery 548 West 28th Street, Suite 540, New York, NY 10001 https://atlanticgallery.org/
