Dual Impressions: Textile & Fibre Artists of Manitoba

September 5th – October 10th, 2025 
No opening ceremony will be held for this exhibit

The two TFAM exhibit organizers envisioned a body of work showcasing how individual artists approach their artwork using diverse techniques, materials, and styles to represent unique perspectives. Krista and Coreen challenged TFAM members to pair up, select a meaningful theme, and then create a piece of artwork reflecting their interpretation of the theme. Most participants were unaware of their partner’s piece, making the first showing a truly inspiring experience.

While all pieces in “Dual Impressions” are fibre-based, each participating TFAM member employed their preferred style, design, and materials. These included felting, appliqué, embellishment, hand-stitching, embroidery, painting, technology integration, intricate machine stitchwork, 3D techniques, crocheting, and a wide variety of fabrics and fibres. The exhibit’s dynamic nature stems from its embrace of artistic individuality.

Artist Collective Statement: Artists interpret the world in different and unique ways, sharing their viewpoint and inspiring reflection.
