JOHN GARRETT
Las Cruces
​Mr. Garrett has been working with the application of textile technologies and imagery to various materials for the past forty years. "While weaving remains the theoretical foundation of my work, I have explored and used many other construction methods to connect materials. Quilts, nets and baskets have inspired much of my work. I have been intrigued with using ordinary, cast-off, found and salvaged materials in my art for a
long time."           www.johngarrettarts.com

KATHARINE KREISHER
Truth or Consequences – 
Professor of Art – Department of Art and Art History, Hartwick College, Oneonta, NY


​"I have been making fiber installations for several years. I use cloth and yarn to explore ideas about gender and goddess myths and contemporary women’s concerns. The traditional women’s arts of knitting and crocheting have become one of my preferred methods of art-making, though each final presentation requires me to build a site-specific installation."

SIGNE STUART
​Santa Fe

​​"Canvas, being a thread grid, has a predictable order which determines and limits how it can be sewn. “Listening” to the stretched and unpainted sewn canvas, I choose hues and apply them in translucent layers of acrylic paint until the whole...linear rhythms rising in color space...comes into sync. The process begins with a plan and ends with chance and improvisation."
