alison pebworth: vintage roadside show & tell patches

Vintage Roadside Show & Tell Embroidered Patches
individually wrapped embroidered patches
$3

Alison has been making “street side” projects locally and nationally since 2004 under the rubric of the Roadside Show & Tell, a series of interactive roadside attractions and related projects created in the spirit of the 19th century American traveling show. In 2006, she traveled cross-country for eight months developing Looking for Lost America, a research project of the Roadside Show and Tell. This trip was the inspiration for Beautiful Possibility, her current traveling exhibition and research project that took her on a five-month tour to eight venues across northern United States and southern Canada. The Center for Cultural Innovation has supported the Beautiful Possibility project through a Planning Grant (2007), Implementation Grant (2008) and Artistic Innovation Grant (2010). Southern Exposure in San Francisco launched Beautiful Possibility with an exhibition and printed catalog in Spring 2010. www.alisonpebworth.com

gabrielle teschner: portable arch


Portable Arch
fabric sculpture packaged in cigar box
$180

Each box holds one muslin arch measuring 30” wide. It is made to be portable, accompanying its traveler from one doorway to the next, cutting the space beyond it in precisely the same way as every location before it. There is an opening at the top for a tension rod installed in the doorjamb, or it can be easily tacked to the top of a doorway frame. The shape is architecturally accurate to Iranian masonry plans.

action weaver travis meinolf: mini-laser loom

$75 each

I weave and design looms because weaving is a pleasure and a political action that I want to introduce to as many people as possible. Through the motion of your hands and the investment of your time you produce tangible material, truly, and that is rare in this world. This simple, sensual, meditative repetitive action can be understood in opposition to contemporary industrial practices and has historically been used to great political and symbolic effect. I have been weaving since 2000. Born in Marin, living in Berlin. Actionweaver.com.

amy berk: obsessions

individual components available from the installation “Obsession”
5′ x 5′; 99 hoop installation; 4″ embroidery hoops detailing various obsessions using beads, chiffons, foam, glue, glitter, etc… exhibited at southern exposure at their juried exhibition of the same name; 1995

My work ranges in scale from intricate patterns of pins on styrofoam and stiches on fabric to small- and large-scale public installations and insertions; and ranges in scope from very personal investigative paintings, videos and sculptures to collaborative public art projects. I use the readymade art of pop culture to investigate the nature of artificiality, the artificiality of nature, and the nature of fine art itself.
