About the Festival: The annual FABRIC Arts Festival returns on October 5-14, 2023, featuring a series of music concerts, art exhibitions, public art, dinners and educational workshops in Fall River, New Bedford and Providence.
About the Program: Hyperballads is a group exhibition that moves around what we might feel and can’t see, what surpasses us and exists beyond. The show positions us in constant movement, going back and forth through spacetime, gravitating towards and away, in the vicinity or out in the vast, juxtaposing realities and balancing subjectivities. Hyper movements that allow for playing, for announcements and deep listening.

The exhibition inaugurates Fall River’s new cultural endeavor, Gather: a crossroads for design, manufacturing, and contemporary art.
