There is a continuum where beauty and function blend and diverge in the hands of the contemporary artist. Even when traditional materials such as thread, fabric, wood, reed, and paper are used, these artists combine skill, imagination, and vision to meld their materials into compelling and beautiful art, which resonates in today’s world.
Art Evolved: Intertwined is a collaboration between Studio Art Quilt Associates and the National Basketry Organization. After a rigorous jurying process, 59 artists from both organizations were invited to participate in this conversation, which highlights the enduring connections between quilting and basketry, as well as the relationship between beauty and functionality. The exhibition will travel to the Yellowstone Art Museum (MT), Pacific Northwest Quilt and Fiber Arts Museum (WA), Lauren Rogers Museum of Art (MS), and Fuller Craft Museum.
Exhibition dates: March 1 – August 31, 2025
