We're so excited to share these highlights from the Artist Talk with Diedrick Brackens and Josh Faught, hosted alongside The Fabric Workshop and Museum and in collaboration with Tyler's Art History, the Q***r Materials Lab and Fiber Material Studies programs.

The discussion centered on the artists’ individual practices and approaches to craft and identity—creating a flow of ideas from two powerhouses in the field of material studies.

Brackens creates woven tapestries that draw on visual language, history and textile traditions to explore Black and q***r identities, while Faught’s practice stretches across multiple disciplines, considering the many ways craft intersects with q***r history, material culture and collective memory.

Experience the work of both artists in “You Stretched Diagonally Across It: Contemporary Tapestry” now on display at the Fabric Workshop until January 3. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3W7jN6i

We’re excited to share these highlights from “Exquisite Corpses: Rain Gutter Marble Run Extravaganza," hosted by Q***r Materials Lab Artist in Residence Eric Anthony Berdis.

Inspired by the Surrealist "exquisite co**se" game, each participant creates one section without knowing the complete design, resulting in an unpredictable, kinetic installation that explores collaboration, experimentation and emergent play.

"The thing about the Q***r Materials Lab is the beauty of making what you want. There’s no one concrete formula.”

In this latest article, Eric Anthony Berdis talks to Tyler News about their experience as the 2026-27 Q***r Materials Lab Artist in Residence at Tyler School of Art and Architecture. Berdis brings over a decade of experience teaching at schools and universities as an art educator as well as leading performance art, curatorial projects and community workshops.

Bringing together art practice and art education, Berdis’ interdisciplinary approach draws upon q***r histories, early childhood pedagogies and craft traditions to investigate how collaborative artmaking can become a site of resistance, storytelling, community and world-building.
