About the Exhibition
TACTILE is a group exhibition featuring artists who work in tactile, accessible mediums. Through processes such as sewing, felting, weaving, assemblage, and sculpting, Sally Molenda, Natalie Kuenzi, Stephanie Williams, Roxana Alger Geffen, and Jade Jefferson explore connection through the language of touch.
TACTILEexamines how physical interaction and handmade practices foster emotional and sensory connections. Through material, gesture, and touch, the exhibition highlights each artist’s relationship to fabric, fibers, and textiles, inviting viewers to reconsider how we connect—with objects, with materials, and with one another.
