A Fiber Show mixing textures, fabrics, and colors. The different venues vary from silk, cotton, wool, jute, gauze and satin ribbon. Style ranges from Southwestern, to Park Avenue, to Minimal Contemporary Pieces.” Pointon expands a traditional wall art format with the inventive use of fiber. She explores themes with a certain familiarity that are given a fresh perspective with the dimensionality of fiber elements.
After a successful and varied career involving marketing and the hospitality world, Pointon has “retired” into her first love – art. She was trained at the Kansas City Art Institute and the Parsons School of Design in New York and is using her art and design background to explore creative ways to combine the classic wall art format with various fabrics – medical gauze, felted wool, chenille yarn, cotton fabric – to create strikingly vibrant artwork. Many of the pieces reflect both the familiar in the art world and the familiar in the everyday world. This dual context gives Pointon’s work an instant visual appeal. Some pieces in the style of geometric abstraction, for example, appear as a snippet of pattern from a much-prized Native American rug of the Southwest. Fiber art in its many forms is gaining full recognition in the fine-art world, and Pointon is at the forefront of experimentation and innovation in the world of fiber art.
