Fabienne's Illinois Workshop
As you know from the previous post here,
Fabienne Rey is coming to Illinois to teach in conjunction with the exhibit
From the Inside Out that Elizabeth Adams-Marks and Pat Vivod are curating. Here is a brief
description of the workshop and contact information to get the ball rolling.
From the Inside Out - Eco-Prints and Memory Cloth 1
with Fabienne Rey
September 19, 20, 21, 2014 – 10 am to 5
pm each day
During this three-day intensive eco-print/dye
workshop with Fabienne Rey of the Netherlands, participants will be introduced
to ecological, economical and sustainable methods of dyeing and printing
organic fabrics by engaging a variety of plant materials. Held in a private 2.5
acre wooded garden in southwest Illinois just 30 minutes east of St. Louis, MO,
the workshop is an opportunity for novice and experienced fiber artists to
create a collection of fabric samples while learning about hot and cold
bundling; natural-dye and eco-dye methods; and the variables of time, water,
cauldrons, non-toxic metals, mordants, local plants and natural fabrics.
Participants will be treated to a
simple, but delicious lunch each day in the garden, but will provide their own
lodging and transportation to restaurants, art exhibitions, museums, shopping, theaters,
and other attractions along the Mississippi River in the St. Louis metropolitan
area. Fabienne will be giving an artist talk on September 18, 7 pm, at the Jacoby Arts Center ADW Gallery, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, the day
before the workshop begins. We hope participants will plan to attend.

and the other artists in the international fibers exhibition, From the Inside Out, at ADW Gallery on the campus of Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, explore this entire blog. Each artist has her own page
accessed at tabs across the top. Facebook page links and artist blog links can be found in the sidebar along with other information.

Artist Update
There is no easy way to express our disappointment, but we must announce that India Flint has withdrawn from the exhibition. India explained there are too many commitments on her horizon. We wish her well and extend congratulations on her new book and the fabulous fashions she has been creating of late.

Welcome!
Exhibition Invitation
The plans have changed!
Venue and date information has been updated as of 03/08/14.
From the Inside Out
Felt, Paper, Textiles: Revelations of Natural Mark Making
ADW Gallery, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville
August 18-September 21, 2014
Opening Reception: Friday August 22, 5 to 9 pm
Artist talk at opening reception with Rio Wrenn
Artist talk with Fabienne Rey on September 18 - 7 pm
The exhibition is free and open to the public as are the artist talks.
The following was our original blurb about the show and all is still true except for the location…Jacoby Arts Center unfortunately is reorganizing at this time and informed us they could no longer host our show.
When the Jacoby Arts Center invited us to do a fiber show together Elizabeth and I jumped at the chance and while in mid-air realized it is a huge gallery and we might possibly need some help in filling the space! A bold idea took hold that involved looking far beyond our Southern Illinois / St. Louis, Missouri region. We both have many friends in common through social media and extended invitations to artists that exemplify our theme. We are thrilled that all our invitees accepted our invitation and with the affirmations we are launching the first ever international show at the Jacoby!
Our far flung friends Fabienne Rey, Irit Dulman, and Rio Wrenn are from the Netherlands, Israel, and Oregon, USA, respectively. Elizabeth and I live in rural Madison County in Southern Illinois.
All of us work with natural materials and dyes. In the sidebar you'll find the inside scoop, information on the theme of the exhibit. Be sure to scroll down to access all the tidbits including some at the very bottom. I've given each artist a page that you can access from the tabs at the top under the header or from photos in the sidebar and at the bottom. I've included links to websites, some photos of our past work and statements (sometimes the artists' own words, sometimes mine) so that you can begin to understand what we do and a little of how we do it. As new information comes in I'll update the blog.
Consider yourself invited to the show!
Thanks for stopping by!
