Diedrick Brackens Studio Visit

Diedrick Brackens is a fiber artist who has been selected to be part of Made in L.A. 2018 at the Hammer.
Through the auspices of Textile Arts Los Angeles, I was able to visit him at his studio in Leimert Park today.

He shared examples of experiments from a recent residency in New Orleans.

 Three of us then walked over to Maren Hassinger's opening at Art + Practice.
More about that in a later post!

If you live in Southern California, and have an interest in the fiber arts (in all its many forms!), consider getting on the email list of Textile Arts Los Angeles. Lots of interesting things transpiring with the group!
