fiber artist :: mandy greer


if you live in portland and haven't been to the museum of contemporary craft lately, head on over there before the end of may! you can see fiber artist mandy greer's installation titled "dare alla luce", which is italian for "to give to the light". it an amazing, giant piece made up of an unimaginable amount of yarn, thread, felt, beads, shells, feathers, and more! to see it in person is truly a treat- i felt as though i was walking in some sort of soft and sparkly fairy-land. i can't imagine how much time + patience it took to put it all together. a must see. ends may 31st.

  1. Thanks Darling! I'm so glad you enjoyed the show enough to spread the word! I will head to portland to take it down in a few days, but it has been a terrific experience, I am sad to see it leave MCC. Currently, we don't know the next location, but it will go one somewhere in the future...

    thanks again!
