Desert Threads: Weaving Tradition and Technology

TRAME presents Desert Threads: Weaving Tradition and Technology, an exhibition inspired by two desert landscapes—the Moroccan Sahara and the West Texas Chihuahuan Desert—that intertwines the heritage of Moroccan craft with the free-spirited, artistic experimentalism that has come to characterize Marfa, TX.
