Hello World is blessed to welcome yet another amazing woman to the line up of our first in a series of urban art events at The Service Station in Los Feliz. Iviva Olenick is a Brooklyn-based artist focusing on the intersection of women's handcrafts, particularly embroidery; contemporary language; and our reliance on digital media (Facebook, Twitter, text messaging). Muriel Guepin Gallery represents Iviva's small-scale, narrative embroideries in New York City. Additionally, Iviva has exhibited at the Center for Book Arts in New York, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Denise Bibro Fine Art in New York, and other national venues. Currently, Iviva is embroidering Twitter "poetry" through her Brooklyn Arts Council-funded project, @EmbroideryPoems #BrooklynTweets. Tweet her @IvivaOlenick or @EmbroideryPoems, and your "poem" might end up in stitches.
Come and see her work in person this Saturday!
