About this Event
Welcome to the NCWCA In the Glow Tour! Join us at the Triton Museum of Art for an afternoon artist-led tour of a series of evocative fiber sculptures. Wool felt and body-like forms combined with reflected color explore themes of soft power, aesthetic perception, and the paradoxes of female life.
The free-standing and wall-mounted sculptures and immersive installation transcend stereotypical notions of textile art as decorative and domestic. Stephanie Metz uses a nuanced abstract visual language to allude to the contradictions of a woman’s experiences— vulnerability and resilience, internal and external perceptions, and working within and against gender biases and expectations. The supple yet durable felt material used to make the sculptures reflect these contradictions, embodying both the tender and the tough.
