Drawing inspiration from eight visual artists of the Harlem Renaissance, this Exhibition Collection embodies a cultural movement through both fashion and artistic expression. Therez Fleetwood skillfully merges traditional folk-art craftsmanship with contemporary flair, weaving compelling narratives into each garment. Using silk, wool, cotton, and jute as her canvases, she employs meticulously crafted felt fabric appliques, patchwork, and quilting techniques in place of traditional paint, creating a stunning fusion of history and modernity.
