November Feature: Tammy Deck
- Location: Illinois Artisans, Chicago, Chicago
- Date: Saturday, November 01, 2014 through Sunday, November 30, 2014 , 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Fiber artisan Tammy Deck of Westmont, Illinois both exhibits fashion fibers in Chicago as well as inspiring an interest in fibers through teaching. After receiving a degree in clothing and textile sciences, Deck began creating dramatic costume designs and finding a way to scale the work to give individuals the chance to wear original art fibers. With a wide range of technical skills Deck uses a huge range of processes: from hand weaving, knitting, hand dyed/painted yarns, hand-made felt, recycled sweaters, appliqué, stitching, assemblage, to lamp worked glass. Deck’s current series of work pushes the boundaries between art that you wear, but is also intended to be on display. A fall/winter collection of Tammy Deck’s wearable art will be on display in November at Illinois Artisans, Chicago. Meet the artisan at The Home Decorating Art Spree on November 20th & 21st in the James R. Thompson Center Atrium.
