amalgamation_first edition fine art print

When amalgamation (from The Spirits Mingle series) was summoned to Austin, Texas, I thought it would be wise to document it, preserve it, and share it, especially considering the wear and tear that comes with textiles over time. Thanks to seed funding, I’m thrilled to announce that my first edition of fine art prints has arrived.

The detail in the work is impeccable. You can see every stitch, fold, stain, and embellishment. It is as if the textile itself has been embedded into the paper. There are only 25 prints in this inaugural edition. A few have already been acquired, and a selection will be available for purchase at MASS Gallery in Austin during Heartstrings, a group exhibition curated by Taylor Danielle Davis.

If you’re interested in purchasing a print from me directly, email me at iamnarkita at gmail dot com or complete the contact form here.

Group Show: Heartstrings at MASS Gallery (Austin, Texas)

 

MASS Gallery is proud to announce Heartstrings, a group exhibition featuring seven dynamic artists who stitch history, culture, and materiality through the language of textiles and fibers. The show will run from March 8, 2025 to April 12, 2025, with an opening reception on March 8th at 7pm, featuring sounds by Do Not Disturb Collective at MASS Gallery, 705 Gunter Street, Austin, TX. 

Heartstrings delves into the intersection of art, craft, and cultural narrative, offering a rich exploration of memory, heritage, and material practice. This show is a survey of fiber-based techniques such as quilting, weaving, and embroidery influenced by practices dating back generations. These artists transform textiles and recycled materials into evocative works that challenge traditional delineations between art and craft. Through these diverse practices, these artists illuminate the emotional and historical threads that connect us across time and space.
