DESCRIPTION:Exhibit September 13 to November 8, Opening reception Friday, Sept 13, 
 5-7pm, Artist talk October 6, 1-3pm\n\nThe Reclaimed Room Gallery of San 
 Francisco presents "Women's Work," an exciting new exhibit of textile art. 
 This exhibit features seven local artists who create artwork from 
 reclaimed, recycled and reused materials.\n\nTextile work straddles the 
 boundary between craft and art, frequently created for functional purposes, 
 but still with a strong sense of design and imagination. Different regions 
 and tribes all over the world have their own unique styles for creating 
 fiber art, often passed down from generation to generation. With 
 globalization and modernization, these traditions are sadly being 
 forgotten. But this loss has encouraged new generations to learn these 
 techniques and incorporate them into their artwork. \n\n"Women's Work" 
 includes textile artists Dale Eastman, Rachel Leibman, Karin Lusnak, Stacey 
 Shuster, Ileana Soto, Sharon Steuer and Ellen Weinstein, and is curated by 
 Rachel Leibman. These artists approach their artwork with a nod to 
 long-established crafts such as sewing, quilting and dyeing, but each 
 artist brings a singular and contemporary approach to a traditional, and 
 overwhelmingly women's, metier. The artists in this show work with 
 different types of source materials and produce very different creations. 
 Some use fabric and thread while others create textiles from 
 non-traditional materials such as discarded moth cocoons or vintage watch 
 parts. Some of the pieces are vibrant and colorful, while others are 
 detailed and meticulous. All are interesting, original and 
 innovative.\n\nThe exhibit runs from September 13 to November 8, 2019. 
 There will be an opening reception on September 13 from 5-7pm, as well as 
 an artists' talk on October 6 from 1-3pm. Please visit reclaimedroom.com
