BIO & ARTIST STATEMENT

Based in Portland, Oregon, MIX is a group of artists dedicated to
the creation of original fiber art. Through monthly meetings,
members share feedback, explore design across media, and
develop work around shared themes. Techniques range from
dyeing and printing to quilting and embroidery.
With diverse life experiences and artistic perspectives, MIX
members engage in lively conversation that often extends beyond
fiber art to include contemporary art, cultural topics, and global
issues. These dialogues spark bold, thought-provoking designs
and foster a dynamic creative environment.
This exhibit was inspired by the work of women artists across a
variety of media—sculpture, printmaking, painting, photography,
and digital art. Each participating textile artist selected one
woman artist whose work sparked their imagination. Drawing from
that inspiration—whether it be in form, color, or concept—we
created original textile pieces that reflect our personal
interpretations.
Wall labels of each work identify the woman artist whose work
inspired the textile interpretation.
