Rope Vessel sewing demonstration with Josh Chernoff
January 14th 3-5p – free to public
“This Saturday, local textile artist Josh Chernoff will be in residence at the gallery from 3-5 PM making rope vessels on one of his collection of vintage sewing machines. Clay coil vessels have been around for thousands of years; the invention of the sewing machine created an efficient way to build similar vessels from rope, using a wide zigzag stitch to secure each coil of rope to the next. Josh uses this form of craft to explore shape, color and texture and at the same time to make something functional.”
