Fiber Art and Nature - 3 Perspectives

Mary Stori, Judy Simmons and I hung our latest exhibit at the Arboretum. It is entitled "Fiber Art and Nature - 3 Perspectives". The exhibit opened July 10, 2014 and is open until late September.  We were very happy to be offered the entire exhibit space at the Arboretum Exhibit Center for this lengthy show. Each of us has about 20 pieces on display, all of which are for sale.   We have hung the labels for each piece, but the details of tidying the hanging wires and exhibit signs were done after we left.  Here are a few photos of it when we left.

This is the entrance to the exhibit. It is a very large wall on which the exhibit signs will be hung. Our bios and artist statements will be hung next to each of our pieces. The 2 pieces on the left are Judy's, the yellow on in the center is Mary's and mine is on the right.

This large wall has some of Judy's pieces on the left and mine on the right.

This wall has many of Mary's pieces.

More walls with Judy's pieces. It looks much nicer after the hanging wires are tucked behind the pieces.

More of my pieces mixed with Judy's.

The smaller items look nice stacked , but the hanging system doesn't always accommodate it well.

We spent a lot of time arranging the pieces before we did any hanging.

Most of the time we arranged them by what looked best next to each other.

There was another long wall where we hung 5 of our large pieces.

Mary's pieces were on another wall.  Sure wish I had photos after the tidying up of the wire.
