I’m pretty sure Niharika Hukku is another Pinterest find – there are so many incredible boards over there that I discover everyday. I was drawn to her work because of the woven qualities, the fact that they’re in one of my favorite materials, and because they’re monochromatic. As she says of her own pieces in this […]

In Lori’s own words she says her interests are in, “Art that is the size and resonance of a haiku, quiet and solid as the ground beneath one’s feet.” Here here.

When reading Myungjin Kim’s artist statement I knew right away that we would be fast friends – her aesthetic in a few words, “hand painted porcelain vessels.” Amazing. She usies instinct to form her vessels and creates, as she says, “inside/outside surrealistic dramas.” The above is a close up of the piece entitled, “Translucid Remains” – […]

I love how modern these textiles works by Eleanor Anderson look but I really can’t find out too much about her online. I found out about her through the even-awesome, Textile Arts Center where it appears she’s a resident right now. As I got to digging around though it appears she’s far younger than I […]

Pia lives and works in Helsinki, Finland and recently graduated from The Glasgow School of Art, which put up a few of her pieces online – she also keeps a […]

My brother forwards me 5-10 items from his Google Reader a day. Some of those are really just time-sucks like a chicken coin purse, puppy pictures, etc. others of them are awesome like a recent one from Colossal about Shayna Leib. Shayna won immediate favor with me because of her really informative website with great […]

I went back down the rabbit hole after a homemade dinner tonight and stumbled upon Tokyo artists, Kohei Nawa. I forget how I found him but it was on someone’s Facebook tonight! I was drawn to his pieces for a few reasons – scale, material, shape. The above is from his Scum series, which is mixed […]

In looking for more continuing education opportunities for myself around Boston I came upon MassArt’s upcoming Fiber Arts class on Sculptural Knitting, which would be one way to describe my yurt project. In the course description, there was a link to artist Nathalie Miebach, I assume because her work is some kind of awesome. This […]
