This artist talk is a 40 minutes conversation between five artists: Kathie Earle, Erin McQuarrie, me, Stephanie Eche, Kathie Halfin and Elizabeth Tolson, whose practice lies in weaving and textile arts. These artists are inspired by the themes of weaving as a form of spirituality and world building that appears in many origin stories around the world.

In conversation artists reflect on how the weaving tells the story of the woven fabric and helps us to make the sense of the world by weaving new connections with the past, honoring planetary gifts and initiating an exchange that is essential to the functioning society today.

All linked in some way through their manner of working, these artists push the framework of fibers as a medium to incorporate sculptural elements, to draw, to dye, waffle, wrap, wind and bind. Artists respond on how their work and textile practices touch upon magical and mundane to unify individual threads into something altogether new.
