The Purple
Pomegranate, a fine craft specialty store, is featuring a juried fiber art exhibition
with the theme of Shelter during the month of October. Shelter is one of the
basic needs for all living creatures.
What constitutes shelter? Is it
an actual structure or metaphysical?
From the lowliest tent to a mansion, shelter exists in many forms and
has many different meanings. What does
shelter mean to you? Fiber artists from throughout the U.S. considered how to
represent the theme of Shelter in their fiber art.

Titles of the work range from 'The Gastro Guest House', 'Tether', 'Searching
for Center' to 'My Nest, My Shelter'. The work includes three dimensional
sculpture and wall quilts consisting of fabric, felt, paper, stitch, cold wax
techniques and more.
