Christy Matson: Rock, Paper, Scissors

Matson pushes the boundaries of weaving in this exhibition of textiles and ceramics. Her woven surfaces can be read as paintings or drawings. In this exhibition, she has literally painted paper before its weaving. The relationship between handmade weaving and the ceramics in this exhibition also reflects her long career in textiles as the molds used to make the many ceramic forms were inspired by the discarded cones and cylinders that yarn is traditionally wound around.
