On June 5, textile artist Cora Nimtz will join us for First Fridays! Learn about “REMNANT: Works by Cora Nimtz” in a gallery talk led by the artist at 5:30 p.m. Enjoy free gallery access and an all-ages art project from 4 - 7 p.m.
Nimtz exhibition at the IQM will be on display through June 11. A third-generation quiltmaker from the American South, Nimtz draws on inherited patterns and techniques within traditional quiltmaking to explore themes of memory, repair, and renewal. Using found and salvaged fabrics, she continues a lineage grounded in labor and resourcefulness, allowing each material to retain traces of its prior life. Her use of thread painting builds on earlier pictorial quilt traditions, merging representational imagery with established block designs.
In “REMNANT,” Nimtz affirms the quilt’s enduring place within American craft history, showing how inherited forms continue to shape expressions of care, identity, and continuity.
