"On Indigo Echo" presents new textile and mixed media installation work, evoking themes of ritual and technology through the lens of contemporary craft. Artist Nichole van Beek uses the bright palette and geometric forms typical of internet based art, replicating these forms in traditional “handmade” mediums such as dyed textiles and macramé.
Van Beek fills Interstitial with a quilted assemblage of textile pieces, macramé hangings, and found objects, "On Indigo Echo" binds the gallery through visual fibers. Incorporating the ritualistic processes of collecting, patterning, weaving, and knotting, van Beek develops an installation evocative of 70’s mysticism, and a well-curated Instagram feed.
