Project: Lace In Translation

This exhibition will assemble a group of internationally- renowned artists and designers—Tord Boontje, Demakersvan, and Cal Lane—to explore the intersection of luxurious hand-craftsmanship with modern, mass production techniques through new, site-specific installations located throughout the Center's grounds and galleries. Inspired by the Design Center’s historic Quaker Lace archives, the commissioned works will utilize unexpected materials and technologies to reconceptualize conventional notions of lace and challenge the supposed dichotomy between traditional and contemporary design.
