In person / Talk / Quilting
Join Anette Millington for an artist talk about her work in the exhibition Infinite Forms: Facets, Fabric, and Fiber, at the Museum of Mathematics. In a conversation focused on fabric and fiber, pattern and material, Anette will share her inspirations and methods.
Exploring the psychological depth of decorative language, Anette’s fiber works and prints merge botanical imagery with principles of symmetry. She engages an expansive set of surface design techniques, including woodblock printing, digital print, digital embroidery, digitally designed jacquard woven fabric, and quilting.
In Infinite Forms, fabric and paper become portals into other worlds. Anette Millington shapes quilted and printed textiles into precise tetrahedra, stacking and arranging them into vibrant structures that seem to breathe, twist, or hover in mid-motion. Omer Shalev folds single sheets of paper into impossibly intricate stars, their crisp geometry radiating a quiet, cosmic energy. Each artist begins with simple shapes, yet their work expands those forms into something vast, at once architectural, organic, and dreamlike.
