We were delighted to have been joined by fiber artist Tabitha Arnold! Arnold was joined in conversation by Chief Curator Sara Cochran for a discussion of art, technique, and life.

Using an ancient technique to present the pressing issues and questions of the present moment, Arnold’s textiles are populist and devotional, making scenes of collective outrage tangible and immediate. To her, fiber art can convey a sense of familiarity that allows disparate views to talk about inequality and the abuse of power in our society.
