Western Exhibitions is pleased to present our first show with Sukaina Kubba, Textile Museum. Sukaina Kubba’s work is strongly rooted in material and cultural research, storytelling, and drawing connections as she traces and translates textile designs, drawings, and archives in hand-drawn objects made using 3D printing filaments. For this show, Kubba’s new hand-drawn filament sculptures trace, through deep research, the history of lace making from its handmade roots through the industrial revolution of machine-made textiles to the use of synthetic materials being used today. Please join us for an opening reception on Friday, April 18, from 5 to 8pm. The show runs through June 7 and gallery hours are Tues-Sat, 11am to 6pm. *image, Textile Museum – T78.0023 , 2025, hand-drawn PLA filament, 24h x 24w in
