Introduction

Rewoven: Innovative Fiber Art is a collaboration between the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts, Taiwan, Taiwanese American Arts Council, New York, the Godwin-Ternbach Museum, Queens Colleege and the QCC Art Gallery / CUNY. The exhibition showcases twenty-four artists whose extraordinary creativity and commitment to nature, environmental, and social issues are addressed in a convergence of painted, woven, netted, sewn, assembled and installed artworks. The conceptual art in this exhibition forms an enchanting dialogue, a reimagining and rediscovery of prosaic materials reborn greater than the sum of their parts. As Wen Fu Yu, one of the artists asserts: “The cloud exists in a quiet state, but youth is passionate”.
