Stephanie Metz: From Needle Felting to Human Sized, Felt Sculpture!
Stephanie spoke about her history, process and work.
Statement from Stephanie Metz:
“I’m a person who notices subtle details in the physical world and human interactions around me, and I pay close attention to the things that draw my attention. My artwork grows out of a sense of curiosity, play, and the desire to explore meaning.
“I’m particularly interested in the tension created when opposing qualities coexist. I work primarily in wool and industrial felt, humble materials that embody contradictions in both the physical and conceptual realms.
“I process my life through the act of transforming tangible materials into satisfying forms, which occasionally resonate with kindred spirits. I define myself as a sculptor first and foremost who happens to work primarily in fiber, but I’m not opposed to the label of ‘fiber artist.’”
