During the summer of 2008 I had the opportunity to participate in an apprenticeship program at the Fabric Workshop Museum in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Under the guidance of Lonnie Graham, I participated in an accelerated apprenticeship program during a time when the FWM was moving their studio and office spaces. Because of the move, we worked with local screen printer Lauren Rossi in her Philadelphia studio when it came time to create our films, screens and repeat prints. Unfortunately it seems that Lauren’s site does not have any of her work on it, so I’ve linked to a blog that shows one of her pieces. I titled the piece “Kahua o Mali’o (a place of comfort)” and it was featured in the 2009 Penn State Graduate Exhibition in the Hub Gallery and in the Zoller Gallery during the spring 2009 1st year MFA exhibit.

So I’m trying to get back into posting to my site and I forgot that flickr had a much nicer entry system than wordpress does out of the box…Hopefully in the next month or so, this fabric will be used to upholster a couch I got from James Johnson.
