“Outside the Ordinary” describes the work of the Joined by Stitch fiber artists. The eight regional artists begin with everyday materials–fabric and thread–and create works well beyond the ordinary through innovative piecing, fusing, felting and stitching, as well as printing and dyeing. The common thread binding the separate works together is the outside, the world that surrounds all of us.

Each artist hopes that together their works will excite viewers to expand their own perception of the natural world outside to include a renewed awareness of its beauty, its particularity, and its fragility requiring our care and protection.
