Upcoming Exhibitions
Quilting in the Age of the Pandemic |
|
February 3 – March 22, 2023
Opening reception: February 3, 6–8PM EST A selection of quilts created remotely but collectively by members of the MICA Quilt Group. The group, founded by artist Susie Brandt, has raffled off numerous quilts to benefit various causes, organizations and scholarships. In 2020, the pandemic forced participants to scatter - so they resumed weekly over Zoom, via a website and the USPS. Word spread and seventy-six people from throughout the US joined in. These quilts reflect an ongoing exchange of ideas around race, gender, age, sustainability, hope, gratitude, thrift, color, pattern, craft histories, grief, and joy. |
Digital Weaving Lab Residency Alumni ExhibitionApril 7 – June 23, 2023
Opening reception: April 7, 6–8PM EST Digital Weaving Lab Residency Alumni Exhibition features artists from the first and second season of our digital weaving lab residency program established in 2021. These artists spent two weeks at Praxis with exclusive access to our TC2 loom and all artworks included were woven at Praxis. These 17 artists came from all over the world to access this tool as Praxis hosts the only residency program of this kind in North America. This exhibition will culminate in the first conference in digital weaving since the redesign of the loom in 2012. 'Praxis & Practice: digital weaving conference' will take place in Cleveland in June and will begin with a closing reception at Praxis for the alumni exhibition on June 23 from 5–8pm. |
