Opening Reception – Max Adrian: RIPSTOP

August 15, 2024 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

Center for Craft invites you to join us to celebrate the exhibition opening for Max Adrian: RIPSTOP on Thursday, August 15 from 5:00 – 7:00 pm!

‍Max Adrian: RIPSTOP is a solo exhibition celebrating queer material culture and history through the lens of craft by the Ohio-based fiber artist and recipient of the prestigious 2015 Center for Craft Windgate-Lamar Fellowship. The show features patchwork textiles and inflatable sculptures made from fur, satin, pleather, fringe, and ripstop, the show’s namesake, a woven nylon material that allows the pieces to hold air. On view are monumentally scaled works that inflate in response to the viewer.

This event is free and open to the public. Artist remarks will be at 6pm and light refreshments will be provided.

Generous sponsorship provided by Arrowmont School of Arts & Crafts.

RIPSTOP was organized by the Houston Center for Contemporary Craft and curated by Sarah Darro.
