Fiber artists Christy Puetz and Ingrid Restemayer have created weird, beautiful things to exhibit both together and separately since they studied in North Dakota more than 20 years ago. The duo’s current joint show, “Delicate Beasts,” continues through Saturday, February 14.
Puetz sculpts life-size pets and small wildlife partially encased in sheaths of beads and other materials, while Restemayer etches tiny portraits of huge animals like buffalo onto discarded gift cards, then adds hand embroidery. Preview their creations at www.ingridartworks.com and www.xtyart.com.
Rethink both craft materials and the species with which we share the planet at Modified Arts, 407 East Roosevelt Street. Admission is free. For more info about the exhibition, visit www.modifiedarts.org or call 602-462-5516.
