Plans for Global Peace are explored by Artists working with textile techniques.
Bend - Turn in a New Direction
Fold - Lay Together and Interlace
Manipulate – Handle and Manage
The world as it is and what it might become considers the problems of our planet and forecasts a cataclysmic conclusion.
Nations invading Nations; Battles amongst Spiritual Beliefs vie for position of who is right and who is wrong; Industry preying upon Nature and weakening her beyond repair; Leaving in the wake of tomorrow a ravaged landscape.
In this end however we all imagine a new and hopeful beginning. A future built on possibilities where all life coexists on a nonhierarchical plane.
In this exhibit artists using textile techniques in their work have suggested the possible steps in a plan for how we, today, can be coaxed into turning in a new direction so that tomorrow we learn to lay together and interlace our freedoms to handle and manage and live in global peace.
