Go see your next art opening in a room full of underwear. No, it’s not an Emin-esque installation or a Venessa Beecroft performance. Tonight, Lille Boutique (1007 E Burnside), the Eastside shop for excellent European and independent-label lingerie, hosts an opening of and exhibition of work by Sarah LaBarre whose modus operandi is embroidery on patchworked and hand-dyed vintage fabrics, creating imagery that comments on the fabrics’ patterns and intersections and takes off into abstraction from there. The reception is tonight from 6-9 PM. Sarah E. Labarre’s New Work in Fibers will be up through February. You’ll also find the launch of local artist Sabrina Peterson’s new line of nature-inspired lingerie, Birds of Prey, and sale goods just in time for Valentine’s Day.
