The Canton Museum of Art is pleased to present Apeiron, a solo exhibition by artist John Sabraw, which incorporates painting, sculpture, and video. For 20 years, Sabraw’s nature-inspired, politically-charged paintings have garnered awe and awareness for ever-more-pressing environmental concerns. In this new exhibition, he builds on past practices, mediums, and partnerships, collaborating closely with organizations and communities within the nonprofit and academic sectors.
Until the late 19th century, most fiber dyes were derived from plants, fungi, or insects. Today the fibers and colors found in most clothes, linens, rugs, and carpets are overwhelmingly derived from fossil fuels. Like many elements of modern life, even the colors in the most intimate spaces of the home are marked by the fossil fuel industry. This collection of botanically-dyed, handwoven wall hangings is a reminder of origin––of the craft that has long provided a sense of identity and connection to place for many cultures.
