Studio Art Quilters Associates: Delaware, DC, Maryland, & West Virginia Region
Simple Lines
Fiber Work
Sep 7-Oct 27
Living in or near a center of power such as Washington, DC, can affect a person’s view of the world. Every day seems to be filled with activity on multiple levels, weaving a complex structure of society that can be a challenge to understand and navigate. Using fiber art, the artists express Washington, DC, and the surrounding area in a simplified form.
Jim Roberts
Under the Influence
Mixed media sculptures
Sep 7-Oct 27
These installations are a commentary on the gun culture in our country and the various systems that fuel it, particularly the NRA. They are a response to Roberts’ twenty-four years of teaching in a public high school and the countless in-services and faculty meetings intended to prepare for active shooter situations.
Michel Demanche
The Yellow King
Mixed media
Sep 7-Oct 27
Through its multi-media collage symbology, the artwork in this exhibition invites an examination and contemplation of the consequences of political issues, racism, and bigotry towards the marginalized in contemporary culture.
