The Directed Art Modern is pleased to present: Eight Women Pulling at the Threads of Social Discourse, a group exhibition exploring elements of society through the textile arts. Featured in the exhibition are artists: Aurora Molina, Katika, Natalia Schonowski, Nathalie Alfonso, Paola Moreira, Laura Marsh, April Hartley, and Janna Isbey

Applying Marxist literary criticism to textiles, this exhibition presents reflections of society—its tendencies, failings and class—-as mirrors of the social institutions and practices from which the works evolve. The works presented in the exhibition also highlight how notions of class and social structure alienate the individual, thus stimulating the ever present modern phenomenon of ‘angst’, and what Sartre refers to as ‘nausea.’
