Arline Fisch: Aquatic Bloom

The Craft in America Center is pleased to present a solo exhibition of knit and crocheted metal wire sea creatures by pioneering artist Arline Fisch, from June 9 - August 4, 2018.

For this installation, Fisch's work will transform the Center into an oceanic aquarium with vibrant wire jellyfish floating through the space and a coral reef filling the window. Fisch incorporates various jewelry and metal materials with textile processes including knitting and crocheting in order to create her work.

Drawing from ancient civilizations such as Egyptian, Greek, Etruscan, and pre-Colombian, she weaves the ideas extracted from past cultures with contemporary concerns to create layers of visual meaning. With this body of work, Fisch continues her investigation of the primeval with jellyfish, the oldest multi-organ animals on the planet.

With Aquatic Bloom, Fisch is calling attention to the sheer majesty and beauty of our oceans and what we need to desperately protect.
