STITCH!: LoVid • Mary Tooley Parker • Michael C. Thorpe • Stacey Lee Webber

8 July - 21 August 2022

Overview

LaiSun Keane is pleased to present a fiber and textile art group presentation, STITCH! featuring LoVid • Mary Tooley Parker • Michael C. Thorpe • Stacey Lee Webber on view from July 8 - August 21, 2022.

The elevation of textile art in recent years to the realm of fine art is supported by the proliferation of this medium’s representation at major museums, art fairs and art galleries. This exhibition is our contribution to this conversation by showcasing four artists working in textile and fiber art whose works are diverse and provocative. The title “Stitch” refers to mending, joining or bringing pieces together. More than describing an action in textile related work, stitch in a metaphorical sense expresses our desire to see healing in the world we live in, hence making this exhibition an uplifting presentation for the eyes and the mind.
