If you are in Philadelphia, You Stretched Diagonally Across It: Contemporary Tapestries opens tonight at the Fabric Workshop and Museum from 7-9PM! Originally organized by Dallas Contemporary and curated by independent curator Su Wu. The Fabric Workshop and Museum has reimagined this iteration to bring together 33 works by 25 artists exploring tapestries as a conceptual and aesthetic space where questions of authenticity, labor, surface, and structure come to the fore.
Christy Matson’s Pixel Grid (floral), is included in the exhibition, don’t miss it! On through January 3rd, 2027.

Tanya Aguiñiga, Camazotz, 2026. For Aguiñiga, this work is an act of ancestral recovery. Patterns referencing Otomi weaving and the craft traditions of Michoacán and Jalisco — regions tied to her own family history —speak to a Mestizo lineage fractured by colonization, now accessible only via fragments: a tourist object, a surviving codex, a persisting craft tradition. By working with gauze-like textile —used across Mesoamerica for everything from lacework to fishing nets — she draws on a material lineage that is at once sacred and utilitarian. Through material, image, and pattern, she reaches toward what has been lost, making meaning out of erasure.
