"I work with fibers, favoring wool and cotton, using techniques that generate a cultural connection with my country and my roots. In my pieces I tend to show fibers pushing themselves through, in what seems to be an effort to be seen." - Cristina Ayala

MAINSITE Contemporary Art is excited to announce the opening of "Inherited Forms" from Nosheen Iqbal. Join us for the opening reception on August 14 from 6-9 pm taking place alongside August's 2nd Friday Art Walk. The exhibit runs from August 14 through September 11.

"Inherited Forms explores the ways in which ornament, architecture, and craft become vessels for cultural memory. Drawing from the geometric rhythms of Islamic architecture and the rich textile traditions of Pakistan, my work examines how patterns passed through generations carry narratives of identity, belonging, and resilience."
