Patterning

This season’s inaugural group show brings together artists considering pattern across a range of media, forging new connections between textile and painting, ceramic, and printmaking.

Working and reworking material through felting, weaving, mark-making, and dyeing, these artists explore the repetition inherent to pattern in both process and form. Pattern—often relegated to the margin—becomes the center, whether conceptually or compositionally.

In these works, patterns and textiles hold histories and narratives both personal and collective, offering insights into familial, cultural, and material memory rooted in the texture of daily life. Patterning includes works by Lauren Luloff, Joiri Minaya, Alyssa Sakina Mumtaz, Padma Rajendran, Aparna Sarkar, Benedict Scheuer, and Pallavi Sen.
