Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review"A happy combination of overview and fine detail...a fantastic addition."
-- —Junco Sato Pollack, artist and retired Professor of Textiles at Georgia State University's E. G. Welch School of Art and Design, Atlanta, Georgia
"With its eclectic approach and broad reach, underpinned by the clarity of writing, this book makes a useful addition to the lexicon of dimensional textiles."
-- —Janet De Boer, former CEO, TAFTA (The Australian Forum for Textile Arts Ltd); former editor, Textile Fibre Forum Magazine
"If you don’t know what people are doing with fiber, this book will be your doorway to a new world. If you do, you’ll be studying each photo and asking, 'Hmmm . . . how did she do that?'”
-- —Janet Russell, award-winning basket maker; former president, National Basketry Organization
"A luscious range of processes, materials, textures and subjects . . . will compel you to look again and again."
-- —Adrienne Sloan, fiber artist and writer
"A primer on artistic rule breaking . . . a liberating celebration of boundary-pushing and experimental thinking that disrupts expectations and embodies endless possibilities for those interested in sculpture, contemporary art that happens to employ textile elements, and the breakdown of artistic categories in general."
-- —Kate Kretz, MFA, artist, associate professor of art
