BRIC Contemporary Artists Working in Textiles

Short list curator: Jordana Munk Martin writes about BRIC Contemporary Artists Working in Textiles.

 

''In my approach to highlighting artists from the BRIC Artist Registry, I sought to feature those who are directly employing either the medium or the processes of textiles to amplify their concepts. I found an inspiring grouping of artists, each exploring a unique aspect of textiles to identify something about our environment, our psyches, or our relationships.''

''The works of artist Brigitta Varadi are composed of textile processes such as dyeing and felting, and are often community-based, meaning the artist at times engages with the community to facilitate the making of a piece. This tactic serves as a nod to the rich social component and collaborative element in the history of textile-making. We are thrilled at Textile Arts Center to welcome Brigitta as our 2014 Sewing Seeds Artist in Residence, wherein the artist will incorporate similar themes in her proposed project.''

Sewing Seeds is proud to announce the Sewing Seeds Artist in Residence for 2014:

 

Brigitta Varadi, a Hungarian-born, Brooklyn-based artist incorporates textile processes such as dyeing, felting, and sculptural manipulation into her practice. During her residency with TAC, Brigitta plans on constructing a site-specific installation for the Green Acres Garden  involving various light-sensitive felted and naturally dyed banners and running lines. We are very excited to have her with us and hope that you are there to join us with the completion of her project at the end of the summer.

For more information and images of the artist’s work or more information about TAC’s Sewing Seeds residency program please to visit either the artist’s website, or Sewing Seeds!
