Along with my fellow classmates from my UNL TCD Care and Conservation of Textile Collections class, I was fortunate to have to opportunity to participate in curating the Celebration and Ceremony: Traditional Textiles of the East exhibit hosted by the Lentz Center for Asian Culture from April 10-June 24, 2007.
The exhibit featured textiles and ethnic dress from Japan, China, Korea, India, Pakistan, and Bhutan drawn from the collections of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Historic Textile and Ethnic Dress Collection, the Anthropology Division of the University of Nebraska State Museum, and the Lentz Center for Asian Culture. I created the mount and installation for a beautiful 20th century kesa.
