Our 4-person textile art exhibit ArchiTEXTURE: Hard Edges in a Soft Medium opened in New Westminster on August 7. Our work will be on display until October 2, 2017.
It’s a wonderful exhibit (if I do say so myself) because we all have different styles, which makes for a very diverse and interesting art show. Each piece in the exhibit has some architectural aspect, but there’s a wide variety in subject matter, as well as style and techniques.
In addition to our other pieces in the show, we each created a 20″ x 20″ work inspired by the massive metal Vancouver Biennale sculpture located at the east end of Westminster Pier Park. WOW Westminster is a 140-foot installation, comprising 4 forty-foot shipping containers precariously cantilevered to form a W-shape. It was designed by Brazilian artist José Resende and was installed in 2015.
Here we are at the opening reception of our exhibit – (left to right) me, Judy Villett, Mardell Rampton and Janet Archibald – each standing next to our interpretation of the WOW Westminster sculpture.
And I’m happy to say that we have finalized the date and time for our Artists Talk – Saturday, September 16 at 2:00pm.
Thanks for stopping by. Today, I’m linking up with Nina Marie – click on the link below, where you’ll find many other creative and inspirational projects.
