TEXTILE TALK: MiKyoung Lee: Threading Memories and Weaving Connections (Surface Design Association)

MiKyoung Lee uses repetitive mark making to explore the relationships between tool and material, material and process, and image and content. In MiKyoung Lee: Threading Memories and Weaving Connections, we’ll hear directly from the artist. She will introduce her recent solo exhibition exploring memories from her childhood in Korea and later chapters of her life in the United States. The exhibition is on view at the Princeton Art Museum. It includes a reflection of the past 15 years of MiKyoung’s work as she makes space, holds, and reflects upon memories and connections.

Studio Art Quilt Associates, Inc. (SAQA) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote the art quilt: "a creative visual work that is layered and stitched or that references this form of stitched layered structure."

Founded in 1989 by an initial group of 50 artists, SAQA now has over 4,000 members: artists, teachers, collectors, gallery owners, museum curators, and corporate sponsors. With access to our museum-quality exhibition program, SAQA members challenge the boundaries of art and change perceptions about contemporary fiber art.

As a part of SAQA’s dynamic creative community, members can take their artwork and career to the next level. We offer a wide range of exclusive resources, mentorship programs, and professional opportunities.

In addition, SAQA documents the art quilt movement – our publications include full-color exhibition catalogs, the Art Quilt Quarterly magazine, and books like Art Quilts Unfolding: 50 Years of Innovation, and the Exploring Art Quilts with SAQA series.
