Reposting• @americantapestryalliance “Blackity Black Blanket Drape on Library Ladders”, Theda Sandiford, 2023

“Engaging in these conversations [that include racial gaslighting and dismissive remarks] feels like a game of Chutes and Ladders...I refuse to be silenced or gaslit. It’s time to confront racism head-on and hold ourselves accountable for change.” Theda Sandiford @misstheda on her work, “Blackity Black Blanket”. This work is on display now through December 8 in “Beyond: Tapestry Expanded”, an ATA sponsored exhibit at the Peeler Art Center at DePauw University in Greencastle, IN. Courtesy of the artist. Special thanks to the exhibition curator Erica Warren @connoisseurofcomfort and the jurors Jade Yumang @jadeyumang Alexa Griffith Winton @agwinton

The second presentation will be at the 2024 Textile Society of America Symposium, titled “Shifts and Strands: Rethinking the Possibilities and Potentials of Textiles.”
