Artist Statement DRAW STAMP RIP PAINT FELT RUST STITCH As a fibre artist, working with different materials and techniques allows me to introduce personal experience, existing stories and emotion into my art. It is important for me to retain a sense of inevitable deterioration in my narratives and materials. My work begins with collecting wool, well loved fabrics, books and artifacts which I pair with my narratives. With my series “The Decline of the Bee” I include real bees and beeswax to give the viewer a visual and physical experience and to provoke the question “Why are the bees dying? I continue to explore life stories with my artwork and enjoy discovering new paths of creativity. fibrerhapsody@gmail.com www.fibrerhapsody.com Facebook: Fibre Rhapsody www.edenmillsartsfestival.com |
