MARY BABCOCK EXCELLENCE IN FIBER AWARD

Mary Babcock has received the Excellence In Fibers VI Installation Award for her work Lotic Sea. Lotic Sea questions our understanding of borders in light of the rapidly changing topographies presented by glacial melts and sea level rise, and challenges discourses that prioritize economies over communities and ecologies. The work appears in the Winter issue of Fiber Art Now, to be released in January 2021. Lotic Sea is also included in Excellence In Fibers VI virtual exhibition presented on the New Bedford Art Museum website through March 28, 2021.
