Since its founding in 1985, Visions Museum of Textile Art has attracted a vibrant textile art scene in San Diego, California. In 2007, when volunteers organized a community build and created our permanent location in the Arts District Liberty Station in San Diego, California, our space invited new approaches to contemporary textile art. 

This exhibition showcases the creativity and innovation of San Diego’s textile artists, remembering that the textile tradition in San Diego dates back to the indigenous Kumeyaay. Artist Rebecca Smith utilizes her signature transparency weaving technique to create artworks whose intricate shadows rival the beauty of the artworks themselves.
