Queer Threads Book Launch!
I am excited to announce the launch of "Queer Threads: Crafting Identity and Community"! This book, based on the exhibition by the same name has been a long time in the making. John Chaich and Todd Oldham, with the help and support of Ammo Books, have done a FANTASTIC job with this publication. They've included additional artists, highlighted work not in the exhibition, and paired each artist with a famous queer person for an interview section in the back. I'm honored to have been interviewed by Jonathan Adler! I'll be attending the book launch in NYC, so please come by and say hello!

Children’s Museum of the Arts is pleased to announce Sew What? on view in the Cynthia C. Wainwright Gallery. This exhibition takes textile arts as its starting point and includes contemporary artists whose work transforms the material of fiber. Sew What? revels in the diversity of textiles, and how these materials are transformed through various techniques by contemporary artists.
The word textile, from Latin texere, means to weave, to braid, to construct. Most textile arts begin with twisting or spinning and plying fiber to make yarn (called thread when it is very fine and rope when it is very heavy). The yarn is then knotted, looped, braided or woven to make flexible fabric or cloth, and cloth can be used to make clothing and soft objects. Techniques of dyeing, printing, embroidery, needlework, knitting, quilting and sewing all are a part of textile arts.
Often connecting significant personal and cultural narratives, the artists in Sew What? move across temporal and spatial boundaries, connecting old and new ideas, just as they provide important links between people, places and ways of life. Bringing together a diverse range of contemporary works, Sew What? celebrates the ways in which contemporary artists explore and extend the textile and fiber medium.
