SECCA Project Update: I


We (finally...) got around to having our first meeting to discuss our project for the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art today!
Many ideas were discussed over plenty of caffeine.... consumerism, moths, rust, technology, collaboration, and of course, textiles.
To quote some excerpts we found key in Out of Fashion's statement:
"...there is a movement amongst local artists and designers that turns instead to refuge, time and duration."
"...this exhibition mines the histories of fashion as vessels of time, nature, and memory."

Without saying too much, this project is already shaping up to be a really exciting opportunity for the Common Seam to unite creatively.
Many ideas abrewing, abrewing....more soon to come!!


ps.
SECCA has this really cute little door, among other things.....
