Regina Jestrow: Lots of Little Pieces (aka My Favorite Color is Glitter) showcases Jestrow's large-scale art quilts weaving personal narratives with a tribute to her mother and sister, celebrating their love for shiny things.

Curated by Dainy Tapia of ArtSeen365, this exhibition showcases Jestrow's large-scale art quilts weaving personal narratives with a tribute to her mother and sister, celebrating their love for shiny things. The tacky-luxe aesthetic, which prominently features in Jestrow's family home in Queens, New York, continues to influence her artistic practice in Miami.

Jestrow's geometric art quilts incorporate hand-dyed and painted fabrics, alongside repurposed textiles sourced from friends, family, and thrift shops. These materials, as well as deconstructed party dresses, serve to convey stories and reference pop culture trends. By employing symbolic traditional quilt patterns, Jestrow creates new, dynamic forms that narrate her experiences.

Join us for this captivating exploration of personal and cultural narratives through the art of quilting!
