Description
Ann Hamilton's hand screenprinted motif is inspired by a drawing from an 18th-century weaving pattern book found in the Rare Books Department of the Free Library of Philadelphia. Untitled (pillow) evolved out of the artist’s 2016 exhibition Ann Hamilton: habitus and similarly explores the intersection between cloth and shared experiences. Produced entirely in-house at FWM’s Studio, the artist designed this pillow in two colorways.
Ann Hamilton, in collaboration with The Fabric Workshop and Museum, Philadelphia. Created on the occasion of FWM's 40th anniversary.
