World of Threads Festival
Judith Scott
2016 Exhibition: Gallery
Late American artist, Judith Scott (1943-2005) is best known for her engrossing, enigmatic fibre sculptures. Introduced to art making at age 44 through the Creative Growth Art Center in Oakland California. Scott, who was deaf and born with Down syndrome, would go on to produce a complex, far-reaching and masterful body of work in the eighteen years that followed until her death. Surveyed here in Canada for the first time, this exhibition covers a broad spectrum of Scott's output in both sculpture and drawing. This exhibition at the Oakville Gallery was a partner exhibition with World of Threads Festival 2016.
