Studio Log 9/22/19: Objects of Interest. This week on Patreon I’m sharing a couple of interesting objects I’ve come across in the Helen Louise Allen Textiles Collection at UW Madison! I’m working with a small group of grads and textile historian Marina Moskowitz to put together an exhibition about Textiles in American Politics for some time next year. I’ll put some info about these items here but you can read more of my thoughts and their history by supporting me on Patreon. Link in my bio! OKAY SO: 1. “Fiber Art.” 1976, USA, by Virginia Tiffany. Crocheted cotton and wool. 2. “Dress,” 1999, USA. Tyvek dress with screen printing. 3. “Pillow Cover,” 1918-19, USA. Printed cotton. 4. “Pillow Cover,” 1918-19, USA. Printed cotton. 🤯 #Textiles #textilehistory #objectsofinterest #textilesandamericanpolitics #thateagleisahat #kindof #whatabuddy (at University of Wisconsin–Madison Lakeshore Nature Preserve) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2wnLK5FKWQ/?igshid=188s2i1imgp9m
