AbStranded: Fiber and Abstraction in Contemporary Art Everson Museum of Art
Everson Museum of Art
401 Harrison St.,
Syracuse
AbStranded brings together contemporary American artists who use fiber-based materials to investigate the complex lineage of abstraction. A prominent use of the hand looms large — through knitting, weaving, quilting, and more — and suggests an alternative mode of communication within a digital society. Together, the works reveal how artists employ the language of abstraction to speak about the intertwined histories and politics of craft, race, and gender.
