It’s Textile Mania at The CAMP Gallery With Don’t Be Absurd
The Contemporary Art Modern Project
The Contemporary Art Modern Project announces its 7th Edition of Women Pulling at The Threads of Social Discourse: Don’t be Absurd. Over 100 years ago Søren Aabye Kierkegaard set the stage for society to look beyond one’s own concerns with the start of Existentialism. Absurdism emerges after the Second World War as the world grappled with the sense of the meaninglessness of life due to an overwhelming indifference for humanity and the suffering of others.
(October 17 – December 20, 2025) This year’s edition of: Women Pulling at The Threads of Social Discourse, and Guests, is an exploration of Absurdism done through the hands of fiber artists. Over 117 Women artists and guests were asked to refer to works by: Albert Camus, Franz Kafka, Simone De Beauvoir, Samuel Beckett, and Jose Saramago and interpret the writings into circular fiber responses that, through materiality, convey the tensions of an imaginary suspension between existential reflection and visual language. The exhibition opens Friday, October 17, at 6pm in our North Miami Gallery.
