Exploring love's sordid relationship to art, this exhibition of finely crafted threadings, embroidery works, sculpture, and related installation and video art mines the often-excruciating emotions left in the wake of affection. In performance/video piece Between the Sheets, Chicago artists Dutes Miller and Stan Shellabarger sew each other into their shared bed. SAIC fiber professor Rebecca Ringquist, meanwhile, showcases an installation that reads less like a series of embroidered wall hangings and more as a delicate drawing.
