FSU show features textiles

How great to discover textile art at the current  FSU Museum of Fine Arts   show. It features two students, one of whom, Jenny Lee, employs textile techniques to reconcile her Korean-American heritage. Lee wants to "critique, question, and subtly subvert our expectation of textiles as having only domestic practicality..." according to her Artist Statement. Here is some of her work:
