Judith Poxson Fawkes: New Tapestries

With this exhibition, Judith Poxson Fawkes’s richly woven designs present a profusion of color and pattern. Vibrantly colored shapes, including interlocking Vs, diamonds, and cylinders capture the eye, giving a unique sense of volume and depth in two dimensional space. The unique technical qualities and visual elements of woven design, allow Fawkes to define and determine shape through interwoven colors and the weft and warp of her tapestries. She utilizes both double weave and inlay techniques. The results are shimmering forms that undulate across fields of color, often creating 3-dimensional illusion.
