Our Current Artist In-House

Maiden Lane Gallery is proud to open Basket As We, Basket As Me, a solo exhibition by Karen Kimmel. The show features twenty-three hand-woven, cotton rope ‘baskets’ displayed as a tableau in addition to textile works on the wall. Kimmel’s career ranges from the micro to the macro, with previous works extending beyond the frame of a downtown Los Angeles billboard. In this new body of work, with subtle praise to the ever-timeless Shaker aesthetic, Kimmel positions her work fitting into life - objects founded in wisdom and gratitude; each one posing with its own reflection.

Exhibition ending: February 8th 2026
