. . . this is the show I would go to see: Pip Culbert's deconstructed quilts and garments at Fouladi Projects, up through tomorrow. I first saw Culbert's work at the gallery's room at Aqua Art in Miami this past December. She was showing deconstructed shirts, and I was taken with both the concept and precision of the work.

Well dang. I just WAS in San Francisco and didn't know about this show. Looks interesting.
Oooh, I like these. Great concept!
great concept
Takes away the functions (bed covering, traditional, conventional object). Leaves the signs and traces of work (mind work: the pattern and layout, hand work: the seams). Smart.
Ken, YES.
My first instinct was 'huh?' but then I looked again and started to really see these. Would love to have a irl look at them, Thanks for sharing with us.
High concept for sure.
