Hi-Fibre Content

OSAC Touring Exhibit

Location: Humboldt and District Gallery

Curated by Zoe Schneider and organized by the Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Councils (OSAC) 

Hi-Fibre Content features a selection of Canadian prairie-based artists working within the realm of contemporary art/craft. The work in this exhibition can be described as political, satirical, observant, witty and charming. 

Hi-Fibre Content features a variety of fibre mediums and processes: needlepoint, embroidery, hide/hair-work, sewing, and soft sculpture. The artists featured in this exhibition are: Amber Anderson, Joseph Anderson, Mindy Yan Miller, Megan Morman, FarLee Mowat, Lissa Robinson & Jill Waldron. 

Contemporary fibre is as varied as the materials, methods and artists who use them. The works brought together for this exhibition represent the way contemporary artists utilize fibre as a medium. The work often challenges traditionally held perceptions of craft while employing these traditional materials and processes. 

This exhibit is brought to Humboldt through the Humboldt Arts Council.
