ARTISTS STATEMENT
"My embroidered and beaded fiber sculptures are my attempt to merge the natural world with my inner life. Their symbiosis suggests not only what can be seen, but also what cannot: the early alterations of time, the first suggestions of disintegration. My growths’ elements cluster, cling, and climb. They are collaborations of the observed and the engineered, and completely unnatural. No found objects, nothing that were once alive are used - all are made from craft store yarns, and beads and paper. They’re still and silent imitation, fictions frozen in the midst of imagined transformations."
Amy Gross was born in New York and received her BFA from the Cooper Union. In 2006 Gross received a grant from the South Florida Cultural Consortium. She is represented by Blue Spiral 1 in Asheville, NC, and Watson MacRae Gallery in Sanibel, FL. Selected exhibits : the Craft and Folk Art Museum of Los Angeles, the Minnesota Museum of Art, the Racine Art Museum, and a two person exhibit at Artspace Raleigh. Her work is part of the permanent collection of the University of North Carolina, and has appeared in Fiber Arts Magazine, Fiber Art Now, American Craft Magazine, and The Washington Post. |
