“Under The Red Tent” Opening @ CAMP
March 8 @ 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Free
The Contemporary Art Modern Project is proud to announce our March exhibition in collaboration with Red Thread Art Studio Miami, Under The Red Tent, an immersive fiber exhibition that brings together artists whose practices engage thread and textile as tools of storytelling, connection, and resistance. Under The Red Tent opens with a brunch in celebration of International Women’s day Sunday, March 8th and will be on view through Sunday, April 26th. In alignment with The CAMP Gallery’s emphasis on participation and dialogue, Under The Red Tent incorporates a living oral-history archive that unfolds throughout the exhibition.
Founded by fiber artist Aurora Molina, the Red Thread Art Studio Miami functions as both production space and cultural hub, rooted in Miami’s rich landscape while maintaining a global outlook, advancing textile-based practices as vital forms of contemporary artistic expression and civic dialogue. The exhibition takes its name from a book brought to the group by member Sarah Laing: The Red Tent by Anita Diamant.
The novel centers on the red tent, a sanctuary where women gather during menstruation and childbirth, as a symbol of feminine community, strength, and generational wisdom. For this exhibition, a collective of over twenty women have come together to reimagine the gallery as a contemporary sanctuary. Through performances, activations, and community gatherings, participants are invited to share personal narratives that become integrated into an evolving audio component. The red tent invites us to enter a protected space of reflection and exchange, to consider what flourishes when we give ourselves to building something together, and to follow the thread.
