Material World: Ten Women, an invitational exhibition organized by the Muskegon Museum of Art, features women artists working with non-traditional materials or using traditional materials in non-traditional ways. The exhibition highlights the use of the physical characteristics of material and technique as a component of both visual and conceptual themes.

Many of the works use found objects common to the everyday household, or bring elements from nature into inside spaces. 

Painting, sculpting, weaving, and assemblage merge in surprising ways  — crocheted metal wire is transformed into complex organic shapes, steel rod is welded into traditional vessel forms and animal shapes, paintings are cut apart and reassembled on the loom, and more.

The exhibition runs through August 23.
