Trip to the Mint.
The only piece that was visually interesting enough to make anyone come see the show was on all the ads. Besides the further understanding of things not to do when making art with fibers, there wasn't much to see at the Fiberart International 2007. They were very much like exercises of material and composition than full artworks. In many, the creation was more important than the piece. Yet, the creation conveyed nothing and meant nothing. Very cliché while trying to be serious. They were not makers of objects, but makers of textiles.
I saw the show about a month earlier excited to see some fiber art; leaving disappointed in the end.
