Complex Weavers announces its biennial international juried exhibition “Complexity,” featuring works employing complex weave structures that interlace threads and fibers in ways beyond plain weave. Complex weaving is defined by the cloth produced and the mind it took to create it, not by the equipment used. The exhibit runs from April 7 through May 9, 2014.
Three jurors evaluated ninety-nine works, rating originality, weave structure, technical excellence, aesthetics, and integration of design elements. Work in the show ranges from sophisticated hand constructed apparel made from handwoven fabric to innovative wall hangings and surprising objects. Twelve prizewinners will be announced at the opening reception.
Admission is free.
Guest parking is available near the building and metered stalls are located in the Nebraska East Union lot. For more information, call (402) 472-2911 or visit http://textilegallery.unl.edu
