In a world marked by uncertainty and daily challenges, “Threading the Needle” invites visitors to reflect on resilience, creativity, and connection. This innovative exhibit explores the literal and metaphorical act of threading the needle—blending textile traditions with contemporary art to push boundaries and spark conversation. 

Featuring 19 works by Minnesota artists E. Holt, Cindy Fuerstenberg, Kandace Creel-Falcón, Lily Ova, and Raven Gizhibaayaanimad Mae, the show spans traditional and experimental approaches to needlework and textiles. Each piece offers a unique perspective on the power and versatility of fiber arts. 

Lily Ova’s evolving visual diary Coming Together After Loss, for example, transforms with each installation: “The philosophy of the piece is for it to be alive; for it to be changed by its environment like any other garment. How it fits a wall should be different than it fitting a body. In the same way wearing it out will wear it down, I want it to have tangible degradation from being displayed. The display of it can really change from curator to curator.” 

Marvin Wise’s The Eternal Thread, tells the story of twins—singular yet forever bound: “In this work is the story of twins, two lives born together yet forever distinct, bound by an undying thread... Black and white, shadow and light, do not quarrel here; they join in chorus, telling us that to be twinned is to endure together, to be forever tethered, and to live as one another’s beginning and continuation.”
