Radical Elements Exhibition Opens

Radical Elements SAQA Exhibition has just opened at Montgomery College in Silver Spring, Maryland.  http://cms.montgomerycollege.edu/arts-tpss/exhibitions/

My piece, "Zinc" measures 22 x 36". Selected artists were asked to interpret an assigned element from the periodic table.  I used zinc sheeting, woven sheer nylon, screen printed and heavily stitched by machine before melting away between the stitched areas to create a supportive web.
 The artists were asked to keep the pieces under wraps until after the opening.  Two detail images below:

    This is great! I wish it would come to the UK.

    I am just catching up because I used to come here via Planet Textile thread and it wasn't working for a while.
    Sandy in the UK

    I love your zinc piece! The stitched and melted web is really effective. I would love to see this show.
