ABOUT THE EXHIBIT

What would happen if we found a way to transform our old textiles into something new and beautiful instead of throwing them away? Local artist Maria Cuneo offers a glimpse into the possibilities of fabric upcycling through this collection of fiber arts pieces. Featuring works of intricately detailed embroidery, hand sewn spirals of braided cloth, and lovingly crafted plush animals, this exhibition challenges our current notions of trash and art while inviting viewers to examine consumption, waste, and creative practice.

Maria Cuneo is a mixed media fiber artist in Allston-Brighton, specializing in embroidery and cloth sculpture as well as painting, drawing and musical performance
