She received her MFA from Pennsylvania State University School of Visual Art and her BFA from School of Visual Arts in NYC. Her work has been exhibited widely, with solo and two-person exhibitions including Pep Talk (2026) at Eastern Star Gallery, Los Angeles; Phantasmagoria at Spring Break Art Fair, Los Angeles; and In the Weeds at Lazy Eye Gallery, Yucca Valley. Recent group exhibitions include presentations at BravinLee, New York; DMST Atelier, Los Angeles; and The Quick Center for the Arts at Fairfield University, Connecticut, among others. Silver’s research is deeply informed by material-based learning and residency experiences at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts, Fondazione Lisio (Jacquard weaving), and the Icelandic Textile Center. In 2023, she received the Change Agent Award from NCORE. Alongside her studio practice, Silver is Co-Founder of LA Tactile Lab, a space dedicated to material and textile inquiry, and serves as Director/Curator of the Barrett Gallery in Santa Monica. She is currently Chair of Art and Art History at Santa Monica College. Her curatorial work and artist-run projects reflect an ongoing commitment to building community and expanding conversations around contemporary craft, labor, and embodiment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/0ecbd1a6-db36-46df-a8bd-0fce10eeada4/Screenshot+2026-09-21+at+8.28.03%E2%80%AFAM.png News - Craft Night “I make sculptural weavings that translate language into structure. Working across textiles, sculpture, and drawing, I embed text, coded symbols, and shifting materials to produce forms that move between legibility and abstraction—where humor and grief sit uncomfortably close. Shaped by experiences of loss, bodily change, and broader instability, my work engages labor as a form of endurance. Fibers are bound, layered, and reworked through time-intensive processes that register care and persistence rather than resolution. What appears decorative operates as a system—holding contradiction without hierarchy, where tenderness and force remain visible at once.: https://www.theweavingworkshopschool.com/news/slath-circle monthly 0.5 2026-07-12 https://www.theweavingworkshopschool.com/news/Blog Post Title One-3zaa9-zlxng-67tfc-tlp26 monthly 0.5 2026-07-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/c529503f-e5f8-445c-b623-c5785ecca155/tods-wfs-fw2526-performance-02-V-ImgText-4-5.webp News - SOFT MATTER - About The Teaching Artist Chicago-based Nelly Agassi is a multi-disciplinary artist working in performance, installation, video, and tactile media. Her process features obsessive, repetitive actions that function as a gripping point, a connection to reality, and safe ground. Agassi's practice reflects a post-feminist shift, exploring femininity from a position of privilege and choice. Although her work references traditional domestic crafts like embroidery, sewing, and knitting, Agassi employs these materials in unconventional, non-functional ways to generate new meanings. Agassi's site-specific works merge personal and architectural stories, revealing glimpses of spatial biography through her lived experience. Primarily using materials, body, and space, she creates intimate dialogues within public environments and their stories. Holding MFAs from Chelsea College and BFAs from Central St. Martins, London, Agassi's work has been exhibited internationally at venues like Tate Modern, The Israel Museum, the Triennale di Milano, and Zacheta in Warsaw. Notable projects include collaborations with Lady Dior and Sonia Rykiel. In Chicago, her work has been exhibited at The Graham Foundation, Chicago Cultural Center, and The Arts Club of Chicago. Her work was recently acquired by The Art Institute of Chicago. Recent and upcoming projects include her collaboration with Tod's, solo exhibitions at Foksal Gallery, Warsaw (Fall 2023), The International Museum of Surgical Science (Fall 2024), Kim Contemporary Art Centre in Riga, and The Richard H. Driehaus Museum, among others. Nelly is a co-founder of the nonprofit organization Fieldwork Collaborative Projects and a 2019 Graham Foundation Fellow. https://www.theweavingworkshopschool.com/news/spoke monthly 0.5 2026-07-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/ef291a11-57b0-41eb-a6c5-20ae142c64d3/July+2026+FB+Event+Covers-2+%281%29.png News - SPOKE - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/1783015481939-LPFNUDOI8VGUSCZF27U6/AshleyBradley_03.jpg News - SPOKE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/1783015511791-LPJ626V22JRXB147HMV3/IMG_0368.jpeg News - SPOKE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/1783015529327-V2MSS3GXVYFI8KQ0TZFL/wingedcurrent-cord.jpg News - SPOKE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/1783015605225-N5K5ECT537EHS3OKHJQD/Screenshot+2026-07-02+at+1.06.24%E2%80%AFPM.png News - SPOKE https://www.theweavingworkshopschool.com/home daily 1.0 2026-07-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/1755715408399-RD5PQEO1VS9Q798P142P/IMG_7329.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/6faad482-c6dd-4345-a1f8-309ad2d13354/July+2026+Events+Carousel-4.png https://www.theweavingworkshopschool.com/location daily 0.75 2026-07-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/a62edc0a-280d-4581-addd-d344f50ba6ed/TheWeavingWorkshop-Students.JPG https://www.theweavingworkshopschool.com/faq daily 0.75 2026-06-09 https://www.theweavingworkshopschool.com/about daily 0.75 2026-05-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/1755715408399-RD5PQEO1VS9Q798P142P/IMG_7329.JPG About Interior of The Weaving Workshop school, wall display of colorful materials, and large windows at the back letting in natural light. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68a6172c5afaa10dfd0aa359/257f395a-d5e1-4376-991d-d2b68268425d/TheWeavingWorkshop-Students.JPG About Seven people standing in front of a colorful art installation made of intertwined wire and strings.
