Stitch and Bitch / Tejer y Joder
@ Antena
1765 S. Laflin St. Chicago, IL
Opening Friday, September 23rd, from 6PM - 10PM
On view through Saturday, October 22nd
El Stitch y Bitch (SyB) was founded in 2008 as a space for knitters, crocheters and crafters in the Pilsen, Bridgeport and Little Village neighborhoods of Chicago. Currently the group consists of over 20 members, ages 18 and up. Over the years, the group has evolved into a collaborative art group interested in addressing handmade and Do-It-Yourself (DIY) culture. As DIY culture moves into a contemporary state, many members of the group have found themselves astonished and curious by the inheritance of the handmade skill or the need to carry on the tradition in an adapted manner. Tejer y Joder is a compilation of individual SyB members and independent fiber artists, interested in the themes of gender, identity, tradition and memory. http://elstitchybitch.wordpress.com/
