June 7 - July 9, 2026 The Fabric of Life: Art That Moves You Placitas Community Library, 453 NM-165 Placitas, New Mexico 505-867-3355
“Art That Moves You invites audiences to experience the energy of form in flux, as artists present garments and accessories designed not only to be seen, but worn, moved in and lived in.
The Fabric of Life is a celebration of garments that speak - stories stitched, sculpted and shaped around the body. Each piece in the exhibit serves as a narrative vessel, weaving cultural identity, memory and imagination into material form. Whether crafted from reclaimed plastics or organic fibers, the works confront issues of susstainability, body politics and personal transformation.” - Placitas Library
My submissions to this exhibition are each 1/1 and made specifically for this show. Each piece is made of natural fibers and created by hand by me.
Thank you to my lovely model Aoife and Photography Assistant Lillian!
