The traditional seams are in line with the unconventional use of textile art from the San Jose Quilt and Textile Museum’s upcoming exhibition “Discover/Made”. Curated by Roderick Kiracofe, the exhibition brings together quilts from historical and unknown sources with quilts from contemporary artists including Ben Venom (introduced here), Clay Lohmann, Joe Cunningham, Luke Haynes, Sabrina Gschwandtner, Sarah Nishiura and Theresa May. Their work matches the classic techniques of their predecessors, but sets out to tell modern narratives.
