CYBER FYBER, January 8 - 20, 2009
CYBER FYBER is an exhibition of international fiber art scheduled for January 8th through 20th, 2009 at Gallery 80808/Vista Studios, 808 Lady Street in downtown Columbia, South Carolina, USA. The brainchild of Vista Studio resident artist Susan Lenz, this exhibit will focus on the supportive, global community of fiber artists with whom Susan regularly shares new techniques, contemporary approaches to textiles, and finished work. Fiber artists from over 26 countries and forty-six states in the USA will be represented. Each one has an Internet presence through websites, blogs, and textile forums.
The exhibition will include three primary areas: Over 150 Fiber ATCs (Artist Trading Cards); more than 225 fiber postcards; and the work of nineteen international invited artists, including Emmy Schoonbeek and Jacqueline de Jong of The Netherlands; Maggie Grey and Lynda Monk of Great Britain; Beate Knappe and Wanda Lenz of Germany; Annica Lindsten of Sweden; Arlee Barr of Canada; Dijanne Cevaal, Dale Rollerson, Sharon Boggon, Doreen and Ebony Grey of Australia; Penny Sisto of Indiana; Nikki Wheeler of Washington; Veleta Staffney and Corinne Stubson of Oregon; Jill Rumoshosky Werner of Kansas; and Fulvia Boriani Luciano, Susan Sorrell and Susan Lenz of South Carolina.
There are two special days planned in conjunction with CYBER FYBER, Fiber Day and ATC Day.
FIBER DAY: On Saturday, January 10, 2009 Gallery 80808 will host Fiber Day. Susan Lenz will be partnering with Creative Sewing (519 12th Street, West Columbia, SC) for this event. This will be a day in which visitors can experience the joys of sewing machines, embellishers, hands-on demonstrations and discussions as well as "Show-n-Tell" by experts and amateurs alike. Susan Lenz will also conduct two demonstrations: The Stitch Family(a hilarious presentation, perfect for children) and HOT (heat activated processes for the contemporary embroiderer.)
ATC TRADING DAY: On Saturday, January 17, 2009 Gallery 80808 will host ATC Trading Day. This will be an opportunity for EVERYONE to trade ALL KINDS of ATCs. There will be no age or media restriction. The artists at Vista Studio are inviting everyone to participate in an INTERNATIONAL RANDOM ATC TRADE.

Здравствуйте уважаемы читатели данного форума! У меня в семье такая проблема. С мужем мы разошлись, но не в разводе. Брак хочу сберечь.Поэтому для меня важно наладить отношения с родителями мужа. Изначально ,я им понравилась, относились ко мне хорошо, буквально каждый день с улыбкой встречали. Но прожив какое-то время, я стала в них развосхищаться, т.е. мне показалось, что они фальшивят, кроме всего прочего много было ситуаций. После такого, как с мужем мы разбежались, вся его семья отвернулась от меня. Я никогда с ними не ругалась, никогда грубого слова не говорила им. Старалась выглядеть в их глазах достойно. Но в последствии такого как благоверный ушел, его отец сказал мне по телефону, что он буквально каждый день был против нашего брака. Для меня это был шок. Как человек мог притворятся 3 года? До сих пор тяжело в это поверить. С его мамой у меня отношения никакие.
Посоветуйте, как можно наладить отношения? Они живут за 300 км от меня. И общаться со мной вообще не хотят. Плюнуть на это не могу, т.к. есть веские причины. Они на нас с мужем делают постоянные рассорки, наводят любую чепуху, и быть может в следствии этого мы все никак не можем помириться
