Garvey|Simon is proud to present
FABRICATIONS, fabric functions as both medium and motif—stitched, layered, constructed, draped, and painted—through which artists engage cloth and pattern as both material and language.
The exhibition includes work by Eozen Agopian, who constructs layered, low-relief surfaces that merge sewing, textile collage, and paint into architectural compositions; Ann Aspinwall, whose process-driven works build subtle, vibrating surfaces through the accumulation of fine linear marks; Jeanne Heifetz, whose early works employ stainless steel mesh and glass rods to create suspended linear networks that hover between drawing and textile; Leeah Joo, whose trompe l’oeil paintings render draped textiles with striking precision, collapsing distinctions between representation and objecthood; Kirstin Lamb, whose paintings draw from cross-stitch and folk patterns, translating their grids into densely built, pixel-like fields of color; Patrick Neal, whose disorienting still life paintings reimagine the crocheted granny square as both compositional structure and motif; Marcy Rosenblat, who uses lace as both matrix and image, pressing pigment through its structure to generate intricate, patterned surfaces; Andra Samelson, whose paintings reinterpret woven structures through undulating, grid-based compositions, using stylized, almost cartoon-like distortion to animate bands of color; and Linda Kamille Schmidt, whose jewel-toned textile constructions interweave sheer and opaque fabrics into luminous, grid-like forms that emphasize transparency and structure.
