Carolyn Spiegel’s “Night and Day” (2013, cotton fabric, 33″ w x 27″ h).
Tasked with creating a surface design dictated by the shape and size of a kimono, New York and Connecticut-based fiber artists (from the group FiberartNE) eagerly took the challenge of this unusual focus. “Kimono Inspirations” is the result — and its 25 works are on display now, at one of Chelsea’s most consistently unique and inspired galleries.
Free. Through Aug. 25, at The ArtQuilt Gallery NYC (133 W. 25th St., btw. Sixth & Seventh Aves.). Hours: Tues.-Sat., 11am-6pm and Sun./Mon. by appointment. Call 212-807-9451 or visit artquiltgallerynyc.
