Paducah, Kentucky, USA, The ever evolving art of quilting takes on new ground-breaking originality in the exhibit Fiber Revolution: Quilts as Art, November 9, 2007-January 22, 2008.
Fiber Revolution is a network of professional textile artists combining their knowledge and experience in marketing to exhibit and sell their artwork. Fiber Revolution’s goal is to provide greater visibility for contemporary art quilts while educating the public about fiber art as an exciting art form. Although the art is constructed from fabric, it is not meant to lie at the foot of the bed, but rather to hang on the wall like an oil or watercolor painting.
The artists, exhibiting their work under the Fiber Revolution name, use fiber as their medium dying it, painting it, cutting it, tearing it, stamping it, fusing it and embellishing it. The final step, stitching through the layers of fabric, brings a dimensional depth to the artwork that mere paint cannot.
