Rising up from her own art making at the sensory intersections of word, image, movement, and sound, Pittsburgh artist Marilyn J. Narey’s ongoing series of meaningful, multidisciplinary, community-based
un/common lines projects feature the crafts of papermaking and needlework in conversation with poetry and performance. Through collaborative artistic experiences and collective instructional exchanges, un/common lines endeavors to promote women’s individual knowledge, self-reflection, motivation, and recovery as different communities of artistic practice come together in a shared creative space that extends the opportunity and capacity for support, socialization, service, and activism.
