Consumption Portrait #5. 2010. Recycled plastic shopping bags and thread. 5" x 7"

Look for Consumption Quilt #5 in Crossing the Line: The Many Faces of Fiber at the Courtyard Gallery in the World Financial Center.

The exhibition is curated by Rebecca A. T. Stevens. Crossing the Line opens on December 6, 2011 and closes on February 19, 2012.

Exhibition Statement: “Crossing Lines highlights the diversity of contemporary fiber art through works of varying sizes, shapes, and aesthetics. Through techniques like weaving, knotting, and stitching, member artists explore the flexible attributes of this versatile medium to create stunning new works that investigate the formal properties of fiber and comment on art, life and the human condition. ”

EXHIBITION ANNOUNCEMENT: The body of work in Data Experience is an invitation to you – I invite you to become a participant and collaborator.  The core of my collaborative plea is our desperate need to reconsider the data at the root of our daily lives that we constantly consume and generate — iconography, conversations, our routines, etc.

I admit I should have invited you sooner – before the production of these systems for analysis, contemplation and creation.  Needless to say, these systems are not of much value unlessthey are put to use, tested and interrogated. Your efforts and contributionswill give each system and body of data meaning and life

The works in Data Experience include a number of entry points for collaboration and participation including (but not limited to): playing a game, scanning QR codes, telling stories, sensory input and initiating a dialogue.

It is an honor to share the space with Hisami, whose work is absolutely beautiful in person (the digital versions do not capture the fine detail work).
