Earl ---and group, A response to the 'touching' aspect of fabric...
I think when I exhibit, I should have a table or an area where people can 'touch' samples of the work. Problem with touching fabric: it gets dirty and be stained, etc...potentially trashed- like a painting or sculpture would.
Also, part of the problem for people taking 'fiber/fabric' art less seriously (overall, not for everyone) is that it IS a part of our everyday life...cloth...yet even a painting, underneath, has a canvas/cotton/ base!
I participated in South End Open studios this past weekend...and I exhibited new work, based on the work I showed a month ago....response was very postive, and I cannot wait to show you all.
OK: we have to all start looking at this blog (myself included) otherwise we'll never meet again!!!!
