Participants are encouraged to bring their own fabric or shirts, shirts will also be available in a limited amount.

 

Sterling Rook is a Miami native with master’s in fine art from Florida International University. His work uses his skills in metalwork and fabric to further expand the language of sculpture and fiber-art. Forged and welded steel, painted palm fronds, and handmade rope from used clothing, all factor in for Rook in as avenues expanding this visual vocabulary
