QUICK FACTS

WHAT: 
fiber/DIMENSIONS announces Intersections 4 showcasing about 90 works, ranging from explosive miniatures to environmental illusions, that invite reflection on the practical, aesthetic and spiritual role of fiber in our lives.  For this provocative exhibit and sale, a dazzling parade of supple materials are treated as "fiber." The art contains coffee filters and beer cans, acrylic and angora, silk and steel, credit cards and cable ties, wool and wood.
