Diedrick Brackens: Weaving, Making, Knowing
6:00 pm–8:00 pm
Join us for a conversation with 2022 MFA Banner Project artist Diedrick Brackens, whose exciting textile-focused work responds to the MFA’s masterwork of the British Arts and Crafts Movement—Greenery, designed by John Henry Dearle for Morris & Company in 1892. The richly-detailed fifteen-foot tapestry is unfurled for a special viewing to make connections between historical and contemporary modes of making.
Co-organized by Curators Circles: The Contemporaries and Threads.
