Perpetual Indulgence
Designer Candace Kling American
Not on view
Californian fiber artist Candace Kling creates decidedly decadent works of art by manipulating ribbon and other materials—such as the teeth of a brass zipper or sparkling glass beads—found in women's bygone clothing. Her eponymous "candy samplers" reference the traditional sewing skills commonly taught to young women until the late nineteenth century.
