Lania D’Agostino Recent Work
Artist’s Statement: The characters that come alive in these paintings are created through the deciphering of the world in which I live. They are part of a spiritual journey through dreams and quiet moments. I do not plan what to create; I simply make the marks that present themselves. This work is playful and yet evolves from very intimate emotions.
Not Your Mamma’s Fibers (Radical Textiles)
Not Your Mamma’s Fibers (Radical Textiles) showcased ten local and national artists working with a variety of fiber arts such as quilting, embroidery, weaving, sewing and the repurposing of found materials serving to communicate ideas of empowerment, protest, personal identity and our relationship with digital culture. Opening ten days after a historic and contentious presidential election, the works in this exhibition are artifacts of American ingenuity and the ongoing struggle to create a social and political landscape that reflects our individual ideals and desires.
Paper Work
September is the time of year when we move away from recreational activities and get back to work. Paper Work is a celebration of the season: it is a celebration of labor, the pursuit of knowledge, and of artistic inquiry. Paper is a historic symbol of communication and recorded information. The artists in Paper Work explore a diverse array of communication methods through this ancient media. Paper Work includes ten local and national artists working with a variety of paper-based processes such as cut paper, folded paper, paper pulp painting, cast paper, and embossed paper.
