Fiber Art Now is a quarterly magazine for fiber artists.

CURRENT ISSUE

Fall 2024

Fall is upon us, and so is the fall issue of Fiber Art Now! It is chock full of exciting art and stories that will truly inspire. Meet an artist whose business model is one to aspire to, as she encourages us to use what we have on hand; another who creates work that considers connections in an unlikely place: the digital world; and still another who blends utilitarianism with artistic expression in her wearable art. Our feature artists both work with intriguing materials and present art that draws you in. The results of our ARTwear call for entry should not be missed. They are surprising and definitely exciting!

What's inside an issue
of Fiber Art Now?

Installations

Installations can fill an entire room, hanging from the ceiling or positioned on the floor. Our jurors select installations created with any fiber or textile technique.

Wearables

It isn’t only about clothing! Wearables are functional body adornments yet can also be viewed as sculpture. Think apparel, jewelry, and accessories such as hats, scarves, gloves, or shoes.

Vessels/Basketry

Viewing vessel and basketry forms have you wondering what they were designed to contain? An object, either purposeful or imagined might be hidden inside. A range of these forms are created with basketry techniques while others are constructed with various fibers.

Wall/Floor

Artwork that is mounted on the wall or laid on a floor could be a quilt, a weaving, a tapestry, or a rug. But when they are three-dimensional, they surprise you with their inventiveness.

Sculpture

Free-standing, hung from the ceiling, or displayed on a pedestal, these three-dimensional artworks enhance both interiors and public spaces.
