It all snowballed from there into EVERYTHING else!! I just couldn’t get enough!!! There is so much to the world of fiber and I want in on ALL of it! Any and every opportunity I get to play in fiber\, I take it! Recently\, I taught myself to spin!! I first started with a drop spindle and eventually graduated to a wheel! (both are my babies) Let me tell you…Oh my goodness!! It is so addicting. I can sit for hours on my porch and spin\, sip coffee or tea\, have a cocktail or glass of wine and LIVE!! It’s probably my favorite thing to do!!”

SUMMARY:The Fiber Initiative
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Tiana N. Cain\, owner of i feel like dyeing\, The Fiber Initiative is a program for all fiber lovers looking to network and learn with others who have similar interest. \nFor more info see: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ifeellikedyeing/ \nAbout Cain:\n“I discovered knitting about five years ago; one of my coworkers gave me a book\, yarn and needles! (how cool right??) One night visiting my parents\, i was up late and couldn’t sleep. Thankfully I took my knitting; it was a beast at first but I GOT IT YALL!!! It all snowballed from there into EVERYTHING else!! I just couldn’t get enough!!! There is so much to the world of fiber and I want in on ALL of it! Any and every opportunity I get to play in fiber\, I take it! Recently\, I taught myself to spin!! I first started with a drop spindle and eventually graduated to a wheel! (both are my babies) Let me tell you…Oh my goodness!! It is so addicting. I can sit for hours on my porch and spin\, sip coffee or tea\, have a cocktail or glass of wine and LIVE!! It’s probably my favorite thing to do!!”

SUMMARY:Audrey Barcio: Under Influence
DESCRIPTION:Heritage is a pressing concern to our generation. Should we allow the past to influence us—are we bound to ancient tools\, materials and techniques? Or should we endeavor to make work that is specific to our time\, embracing technology and its untested\, ambivalent ramifications? If we do\, are we at risk of becoming complicit in a catastrophe\, or a pale reflection of something fleeting? \nIn her solo exhibition Under Influence at Tube Factory Artspace in Indianapolis\, Audrey Barcio explores these questions in a new series of paintings that examines where the heritage of Modernism intersects with the tools of the Virtual Industrial Age. Her starting point for this body of work is the iconic grey and white checkerboard pattern recognized by contemporary digital designers as a symbol for emptiness waiting to be filled. Transforming that virtual nothingness into concrete form\, Barcio employs it to empower interpretations of the iconographic legacy of our Modernist forbearers. \nThis is a vision of an aesthetic symbology as futuristic as it is rooted in the constructed languages of the past: Suprematism\, Geometric Abstraction\, Futurism\, Orphism\, Color Field Painting\, Post-painterly Abstraction\, Minimalism. The work transcends the accepted cultural raison d’être of this century—the cult of self—to evoke instead the universal. \nUnder Influence speaks to something ancestral\, universal\, infinite\, and essential. It is a conversation arising not from coteries but from the unifying elements of a common world: shape\, color\, line\, form\, material\, surface\, and the infinite potentialities that arise from relationships. \nCommission of these new works were made possible by the Herbert Simon Family Foundation.\nRead more about Barcio in this Pattern Magazine story. \nAudrey Barcio received her BA from Herron School of Art and Design and her MFA from the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas. She attended the Pont-Aven School of Contemporary Art in Brittany\, France\, and completed a residency at the Vermont Studio Center in 2017. Her work has been published in New American Paintings and has been featured in multiple group exhibitions around the U.S.\, including Art in America at the Art Miami Satellite Fair and GLAMFA at UC Long Beach. She has had solo exhibitions at Syracuse University in New York\, in the Las Vegas Government Center\, and at the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas. Her work is included in several private collections and in the permanent collection of the Barrick Museum of Art. She currently lives and works in Chicago. \nImage: Audrey Barcio\, Second Choice\, 2017

SUMMARY:Justin Brown:Same Old Sh*t Reboot or #FreeMe from my Epigenetic FX
DESCRIPTION:In game theory and economic theory\, a zero-sum game is a mathematical representation of a situation in which each participant’s gain or loss of utility is exactly balanced by the losses or gains of the utility of the other participants. Evolutionary game theory (EGT) is the application of game theory to evolving populations in biology. It defines a framework of contests\, strategies\, and analytics into which Darwinian competition can be modeled. Game theory has been applied to contexts in war. Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene function that do not involve changes in the DNA sequence. \nBrown is focused on how the trauma of repetitive existential threats (lynchings/police shootings/abuse) is encoded in a peoples’ DNA in order to help them preserve themselves in inhospitable environments such as the United States of America.\nThe show will consist of mixed media collages focused around the 13th\, 14th\, 15th\, and 24th amendments\, the national anthem\, and FBI case files for Malcolm X and James Baldwin. For this exhibit Brown will create 3D pieces that coincide with audio and visual imagery. \nHis work is most inspired by Carl Pope\, Angelbert Metoyer\, Clayton Hamilton\, science\, and history repeating itself. Justin is a former member of General Public Collective and a cofounder of Future Friends : Holographic Magic Club cooperative art gallery in the Murphy Arts building. Justin uses mixed media in an attempt to bring the consciousness of street art to the gallery world.

SUMMARY:Keeping Our Mothers' Dreams Alive
DESCRIPTION:For many of us\, our mothers never spoke their dreams out loud. Sometimes\, they did not dare dream them. We\, however\, are the ones they waited and are waiting for. We also have our own dreams. The power of dreamtime and the word are this: to remind us who we are\, to soothe our souls\, and to create futures that break away from the past but do not forget them. The Keeper of My Mothers’ Dreams will end with poetry readings\, spoken word performances\, and ritual to remember and give gratitude to all our Mothers’ Dreams. \nWith readings/performance from:\nManon Voice\nBreon Tyler\nMaurisa Li-A-Ping\nKimberly Licorish\nAbegunde \n\n\nAbout Abegunde \n\n\n\nAbegunde is a Memory Keeper and ancestral priest who chooses to forget that words and days have limits.

Some of the things that bring her the most joy\, aside from creating\, include laughing\, cooking\, and dancing. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Kimberly Licorish \nLicorish has been writing poetry from the age of 11. She was born on the island of Barbados and moved to the United States when she was 16 years old.

SUMMARY:The Fiber Initiative
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Tiana N. Cain\, owner of i feel like dyeing\, The Fiber Initiative is a program for all fiber lovers looking to network and learn with others who have similar interest. \nFor more info see: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ifeellikedyeing/ \nAbout Cain:\n“I discovered knitting about five years ago; one of my coworkers gave me a book\, yarn and needles! (how cool right??) One night visiting my parents\, i was up late and couldn’t sleep. Thankfully I took my knitting; it was a beast at first but I GOT IT YALL!!! It all snowballed from there into EVERYTHING else!! I just couldn’t get enough!!! There is so much to the world of fiber and I want in on ALL of it! Any and every opportunity I get to play in fiber\, I take it! Recently\, I taught myself to spin!! I first started with a drop spindle and eventually graduated to a wheel! (both are my babies) Let me tell you…Oh my goodness!! It is so addicting. I can sit for hours on my porch and spin\, sip coffee or tea\, have a cocktail or glass of wine and LIVE!! It’s probably my favorite thing to do!!”
