Pinecrest Gardens, in collaboration with the Hartvest Project, the Fiber Artists Miami Association (FAMA), and Threading the City, is proud to present “Unraveling Surrealism: Celebrating Women’s Narratives through Contemporary Fiber Art”. This groundbreaking exhibition opens on Sunday, September 8, 2024, from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm in the Chandelier and Hibiscus Galleries, and will remain on view until October 25, 2024.
Marking the centennial of the Surrealist movement, this exhibition honors the often-overlooked contributions of women to this influential artistic genre. Through the lens of contemporary textile art, “Unraveling Surrealism” reimagines and celebrates women’s narratives, inviting artists to explore the magic and strangeness of beauty in the unconventional medium of fiber.
By merging diverse fiber techniques and pushing the boundaries of the medium, the exhibition aims to amplify and reclaim the voices of women in art, highlighting their lasting impact on the artistic landscape. It seeks to foster a dialogue between the past and present, tradition and innovation, creating new connections and understandings.
“Unraveling Surrealism” is a testament to the power of art to transform, inspire, and challenge. Through the intricate and evocative works on display, visitors will be invited to delve into the rich tapestry of women’s experiences, reimagined through the vibrant language of fiber art.
