Interwoven, an idea of the Telaraña Fiber Arts Guild that came about during the pandemic lockdown, has entered its final month a the Civic Center Library, 3839 N. Drinkwater Blvd.
Proposed as a challenge to keep guild members engaged with one another and celebrate Arizona’s beauty, the result is an exhibition of the fiber arts "and the visual images that inspired them," according to a release on the library website.
"Art and nature affirm and celebrate our place in this world. We are all connected, and art can help us remember this. The uplifting act of creating, when inspired by Arizona’s landscape, is what helped these artists get through the isolation of the pandemic lockdown of 2020."
Artists took images of Arizona’s plants, canyons, lakes and skies to inspire their creations, using their chosen fiber art techniques.
Telaraña Fiber Arts Guild promotes all fiber arts, including weaving, spinning, basketry, knitting, crochet, lacemaking, felting, dyeing and more.
The group includes artists with a range of experience, from beginners to advanced.
"Telaraña means 'spider web' in Spanish and symbolizes the connections felt with others who love the fiber arts," the release stated.
Since 1978, the Telaraña Weavers and Spinners Guild has been affiliated with the Handweavers Guild of America and the Arizona Federation of Weavers and Spinners Guilds.
