Exhibit Features Art Made with Fabric, Wire, Paper & More

The next exhibit at Storefront Art Projects will be Ordinary Magic, featuring works by Audrey Goldstein and Danielle Krcmar. See more information provided by the gallery below. Time accrues, moment to moment, to become eons. The precision of every stitch accumulates in the work of these two artists to become magic most ordinary. Here thread is both delicate and airborne, soft and rock-like. Danielle Krcmar’s iterative process of using fiber to imitate boulders, stones and moss is like drawing, where lines of coarse yarn and little stitches grow into a playfully convincing landscape. Audrey Goldstein’s floating dimensional fiber, paper, fabric and wire drawings investigate form and emptiness, where hollows highlight the contrast to our common experience of being solid and fixed. 

DATES: June 7 – July 12

RECEPTION: Saturday, June 7, 1-4 p.m.

HOURS: Thursdays and Saturdays, 1-4 p.m.
