Robin Kang in ‘Pool Party’ at C24 Gallery

Robin Kang morphs circuit board imagery into patterns resembling peacock feathers in a textile created with a digitally operated Jacquard hand loom. An abundance of gold from metallic yarns suggests a link to the divine, the receding space a throne-like seat or corridor leading to the beyond. (On view in ‘Pool Party’ organized by Field Projects at C24 Gallery in Chelsea through Sept 21st). Robin Kang, Daggerwing, hand jacquard woven wool, chenille, hand dyed cotton and metallic yarns, 53 x 65 inches, 2016.

A male Many-banded Daggerwing (Marpesia chiron) has appeared at the National Butterfly Center in South Texas.

This species is very rare for the United States. As with other species of daggerwing, the larvae feed on fig (ficus) species.
