Gallery Exhibit
Continuity and Change within a Line with Saoirse Byrne
Opens Saturday, Nov. 2, 2024 1pm
An exhibition of cordage necklaces made from once loved garments exploring the physical and metaphorical transformation of materials and ourselves. The exhibition will be a series of garments that have been reduced to their seams set alongside necklaces made from the fabric that was removed. I will be transforming garments that are in some way meaningful to members of our community and in the process explore how we honor change both in materials and in a life.
Saturday Fiber Talk by Saoirse Byrne
Cordage- The Lineage of a Line
Humans have been making cordage for tens of thousands of years. It is a way to make thread, twine and rope with few tools and our hands. Please join us for an artist talk with Saoirse Byrne on the process of making cordage from sentimental materials and an exploration of the form in historical and contemporary contexts. I will be sharing about my journey with cordage, the process and inspirations as well as talking about the different forms that cordage has taken in our world.
