| Publisher Description: An in-depth and personal look into the lives and work of twenty-five noted New Mexico fiber artists culled from the state's many cultures and ethnicities. Throughout the last century weaving has undergone a metamorphosis yielding new techniques and fresh interpretations. Not bound by a fixed style, the weavers from this exhibition have each developed a personal aesthetic, building on their inherited traditions to evolve new forms. Peer into the world of New Mexico and its people by way of the woven thread. |
