Lecture/Lunch
Fiber Arts: From Fashion to Installation
Wednesday, May 28 • 10:30am
Elizabeth
Bentley's work in fiber is inspired by the complexity of patterns formed
by numerous layers of hand manipulated machine-knitted fabric, in conjunction
with the translucency of hand dyed silk organza. Elizabeth will speak
about the transition of her work from ready-to-wear clothing and knitwear
to contemporary installation artwork, wearable art and modern dance
costumes. Elizabeth is currently a graduate student in the Master of
Fine Arts in Artisanry in Fiber program at UMass Dartmouth. She is
also an adjunct faculty member of Apparel Design at Rhode Island School
of Design.
