The City of Pembroke Pines and Frank C. Ortis Art Gallery present Warp & Weft, an exhibition showcasing contemporary fiber techniques and works of diverse media that engage rich textile traditions. From saturated tapestries woven from paper to paintings inspired by ethnographic textile motifs. the works in this collection function as vital visual documents encoding deliberate responses to notions of identity, class. gender and belief. Each work is presented as an evolved matrix of meanings and materials; an intricate system of correspondences punctuated by personal data and permeated with evidence of hand and body.
In celebration of 'Warp & Weft,' The Frank is hosting free virtual art workshops and lectures.. Please visit The Frank's virtual classroom here to access this free art education content!
