Kathryn Markel gallery is currently featuring the “Now and later” , Deborah Zlotsky’s solo exhibition. The show features painting as well as tapestries made from vintage scarves. The textile work elevates the geometric patterns of these design into Art to be hung on a wall.
“For Sure 100%” from 2019 explores the use of squares, diagonals and right angles in 20th century design.
“A peculiar influence, subduing them into receptiveness”, 2019 draws its strength from the vertical parallel lines of the long rectangular scarf.
What I really like about these tapestries is they are highlighting geometry we see around us every day.
