I made a trip back to the IAO Gallery where the Fiberworks 2009 exhibit is on display to take photos. All the lights were not on so they didn't turn out very well. Carla took her fancy camera so maybe her photos will turn out better than mine.

The green felted & knotted vessel that is pictured was made by Stephanie Grubbs. This is just a close up view so you can't see the whole sculpture but I liked the way the photo turned out and you can see inside the vessel from this angle.




The next photo is part of a knitted chess set by Sara Braden. She uses recycled silk yarn and the little chess pieces are so cute and tiny! Sara buys sweaters from the thrift shop then unravels them so that's what I meant by 'recycled silk yarn'. You can see part of the gallery in the background.





The last photo won "Most Innovative" and is made by Michi Susan. It's mounted behind plexiglass and is constructed of hand made paper, twigs, and found objects like bottle caps and other things.

Tomorrow is the last day that Fiberworks 2009 will be on display. It will be sad to see it disassembled on Monday when the artists come to pick up their work.
