Weavings of War: Fabrics of Memory



Weavings of War: Fabrics of Memory, features needlework by artists
around the world, mostly women, who have used textiles to express
their experiences of war and devastation in their home countries.
While the exhibit deals with war and trauma, its central theme
demonstrates that art, narrative, and tradition can have a healing
effect on those who have suffered through strife.
