With a background in fashion and textile design, New York artist Elodie Blanchard is well equipped to push fiber-based art in several directions at once. She demonstrates this capacity in a mix of whimsical ‘trees,’ undulating vessels, and wall-mounted, textured textiles at Jane Lombard Gallery, where old clothing and domestic fabrics are given new life in vibrantly colored and dynamically patterned form. (On view in Tribeca through Dec 12th).
