Call for Fiber Art

Hawaii Craftsmen News Release

Since 1982, Hawaii Craftsmen has had a juried biennial fiber exhibit that is, “in, of or about fiber.” Artists are asked to consider fiber and textile techniques, exploring all fiber related work as an idea as well as a media. Emerging and established artists, members and nonmembers from Molokai and across the state are encouraged to submit completed artworks to be considered for inclusion in this statewide exhibition. 

Fiber Hawaii 2022 entries will be juried by well-known fashion designer and creative consultant, Amos Kotomori. Amos is sure to bring a unique sense of style to the Fiber exhibit. He has crafted a poetic statement in hopes of inspiration for artists:

“Manifest your vision.

Create bodies by being in the moment, capturing each breath and telling your story.

Trust the energy within to inspire all who dare to feel. 

Let the world see who you are.”

Fiber 2022 will be on display at the Downtown Art Center June 8 to July 1. Intake of entries will be Saturday, June 4 from 10 a.m. to 12 noon, with jurying to follow from 1 to 4 p.m. An opening reception of the exhibit will take place on Wednesday, June 8 from 4 to 6 p.m. 

Molokai artists, please check the Hawaii Craftsmen website for the release of the forthcoming prospectus.
