New campus art commission adorns Whitman College

In March 2014, Stardust, a six-panel jacquard tapestry handwoven by fabric artist Bhakti Ziek, was installed in Community Hall at Whitman College. Created on her Vermont loom over the course of ten months, each of the sixteen-foot panels is woven with silk, Tencel, and metallic yarns. This video captures the weaver’s process and her thoughts about the commission.
