Project Description

Each participant of Fiberforum created two portraits. One was a self-portrait, created totally by the artist in their choice of media. The other portrait was created in fiber media and passed around the group, allowing each member to contribute to everyone else's art work. Some artists chose to include the same imagery in both pieces, some didn’t. The similarities and differences between the group-produced portrait and the self-portraits are fascinating! (Completed in 2010.)

The portraits reflect the collaborative efforts of 12 artists. The self-portraits are the work of a single artist.
