Brece Honeycutt at Planet Arlington
On September 1st, Brece Honeycutt was commissioned by Arlington Cultural Affairs to spin wool at Planet Arlington's: World Music Festival. Brece was born in Hickory, North Carolina and makes history-based drawings, sculptures and installations. Honeycutt’s recent exhibitions include Emily Dickinson Rendered at Wave Hill in Bronx , New York; husks at Broadway Windows in New York, NY; silence at Evergreen House (now permanently sited on the grounds of Bryn Mawr School in Baltimore) and at Table installed for two years on the grounds of Longwood University in Farmville, VA.
Her works are often collaborative installations placed in public spaces such as university campuses, historical houses, non-profit spaces and inner-city parks. Currently Brece is spinning yarn in Arlington and recording the memories of fiber, thread and spinning told to her by passers-by.
The results of her experience, including recorded stories and many yards of produced homespun, will be exhibited at The Thread is the Line: Contemporary Sewn Art at Ellipse Arts Center, from May 2 - July 12, 2008. See you there!
