Fiber art is a style of fine art which uses textiles such as fabric, yarn, and natural and synthetic fibers. It focuses on the materials and on the manual labour involved as part of its significance.

But why were women choosen to do fiber art, why not the men?
Q. But why were women choosen to do fiber art, why not the men?
Asked by tim s - Sun Oct 8 11:56:21 2006 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In a hunter-gatherer society, as humankind has been for most of its existence, the women were at the campsite nursing babies and taking care of the small children. since they were there, they also specialized in home-activities, such as tending the fire, nursing the sick, and eventually cloth weaving. Traditionally, these skills have been handed down from mothers and grandmothers to daughters. No reason why a man can't do fiber art [wall hangings to the un-initiated]. I have a few examples of wonderful work done by men from the Navajo Nation in New Mexico.

When sending a portfolio of art to a collage what is the best medium to send it in?
Q. -Is it best to mail the original artwork, or in some sort of CD/digital format? What is more commonly accepted? -Also on average what sort of artwork is needed in a basic portfolio (personal art, still life, etc)? I'm a Junior in high school, my Art teacher and Consular have suggested that I start thinking about putting a portfolio together to send out to colleges. I'd like to major in either Art History, Painting, or Fibers.

A. I agree. You should really get in touch with the schools you're interested in and find out from them what they accept. That way, you'll also have a better idea of what they're looking for in applicants to certain programs. National Portfolio Day is a really good opportunity to put together what you have and see how schools respond to it. You'll get a lot of feedback from a trial run of sorts. Many schools will waive application fees if you attend one, and some even accept your portfolio on the spot. Check their website to see if there's an event near you: If you can't make it to one of the events, try looking at the art departments at nearby community colleges. Some host their own portfolio days that are open to local high… [cont.]

HELP! Senior year schedule... 10 pts. best answer?
Q. Am I going to be incredibly stressed out with this schedule as a senior? I am worried about college apps and the workload for each class... Citizens in a social government (like law)// sem. 2: fiber arts (easy classes) French 5 (easy class) AP calculus AB (very hard) AP biology (?) Advanced Lit. (reasonable) AP environmental science (easy) What do you think? Should I drop AP biology or do you think I can do it?

A. I believe you can do it. However, I'm also a senior this year taking a full schedule (with even less AP classes) and I'm already stressing out a whole lot. The work never stops. And on top of that, I still have to fill out college applications/scholarships /etc. But, I do tend to begin my homework very late at night. So, it could be different for you and you may finish your work earlier. I usually finish at midnight or later (starting at around 8 PM). Then again, my teachers could just be real strict and be offering me a whole ton of homework. (I'm kind of used to it, so it doesnt really appear that way.)
