| Introduction to the Exhibit This online exhibit contains materials from an exhibit on display at the University of Wyoming's Centennial Complex Loggia from May 1 to June 4, 1998. The original exhibit features works created by students in Fiber Arts, a graduate course taught in the Department of Family and Consumer Sciences. Throughout the semester students had the opportunity to learn a variety of textile embellishment techniques, such as fabric painting and three-dimensional manipulations. As a final project for the class, each student was required to create a wearable art jacket containing a lining and incorporating a minimum of three techniques learned in class. |

As can be seen from the exhibit, each piece is unique even though all students were exposed to the same concepts. Wearable art is a means of expressing one's individuality through dress. This art form is currently becoming popular in the United States and abroad.
