Elisabeth Kley: Minutes of Sand features an entirely new body of work, sitting at the distinctive confluence of pattern, decoration, and contemporary art. Known for her black-and-white patterns featured in ceramics, drawings, paintings, and site-specific installations, the artist draws inspiration from motifs featured in ornamentation, architecture, interior decoration, and a myriad of global art traditions. Merging the ancient and modern, Kley translates these fragments into an interdisciplinary practice conveying ideas of opulence and mystery.


This is the artist's first solo museum show organized by the Fabric Workshop and Museum (FWM) and traveling to Bemis Center. Invited to print yardage utilizing FWM's world-renowned screen printing facilities, Kley interweaved her ceramic and painting practices with three new yardage designs and a new suite of ceramic sculptures for the exhibition.

This exhibition catalogue was co-produced by Bemis Center, The Fabric Workshop and Museum, and Canada Gallery.
