About the Item
This abstract tufted work features hues of yellow, blue, red, and green.
Trish Andersen is inspired by the work of Shelia Hicks, Cy Twombly, Judith Scott and Nick Cave.
Savannah-based artist Trish Andersen’s “Looking Out, Looking In” is a new series of three dimensional tufted fiber works that explore the balance between daydreaming, being present and finding comfort through change. Recognizing what we all carry with us, through our many life-changes, the visceral memories of small moments and objects - the patterns on a couch, the stitches on a shirt, a floral arrangement, a neighbor’s garden - as she herself transitioned into a new stage in her life. This series attempts to describe those mementos.
Anything living knows stretches of dormancy - when there is nothing to do but lean into the lull and let it unfold - like the things you’ve packed up and carried with you from one life into another - sources of cognitive comfort from physical things,” says Trish. “Some compress neatly, falling into loose piles that bounce back without effort into the forms we recognize, others crumple and wrinkle and distort, forever holding where they were creased, while others fray and dissolve, leaving an outline that blurs and becomes something different.
Looking out: the patterned cushion of the carpet or the couch, the soft blanket that warmed you, the dots and lines on the shirt you wore when you were scared and exhausted but did it anyway, the bright colors of the curtains you hung, flowers in bloom. There was a time when they were simply bulbs underground.
Looking in: what you nurture in your arms, in your mind's eye. The bright spots that you focus on, how they grow and multiply as you feel toward a balance between instant gratification and slow change, vivid daydreams and full presence, stillness and action. Seeking out the sort of comfort that doesn't shroud or numb, but lifts you up and bolsters you through challenge and change; up through the dirt, into the sun. Repeat.
Originally from Dalton, Georgia, often referred to as “The Carpet Capital of the World,” Trish holds a BFA in Fibers from the Savannah College of Art and Design. Her work has been featured at Design Miami, Atlanta Contemporary and has been commissioned by Coca-Cola, Kimpton Hotels, Google and BlackRock Financial among others.

Trish Andersen
Trish Andersen is inspired by the work of Sheila Hicks, Cy Twombly, Judith Scott and Nick Cave. As an interdisciplinary artist born and raised in Dalton, Georgia The Carpet Capital of the World, Andersen's initial attraction to the process of tufting was a means to reconnect with and explore her roots. Years after attending the Savannah College of Art and Design, where she graduated with a BFA in Fibers and moving on to live and work in Brooklyn, New York, she began using tufting as a medium for art-making. This process became an examination of the notion that a thing or a way of being can run in our blood, that perhaps by observing the characteristics of personal origin and establishing commonality and community around those that reverberate in the present, one may be able to begin unearthing the elusive authentic self. Andersen currently lives and works in Savannah, Georgia.

Artist Biography:
My artwork is engaged to nature and its recurrent patterns and rhythms. I use them as a base in order to create my compositions. I´m attracted to repetitive sequences, combining separate elements to form a cohesive group. It isn’t a strict conceptual idea of repetition on itself; my work doesn’t seek to impose an order or structure, but rather to enjoy the rhythm of repetition. Silk and paper have the softness and malleability that I need in order to create my desired forms, shapes and even shadows. The process to carry out my work is thorough and methodical. I choose as materials small and simple elements; such as feathers made out of paper and silk and then organized in a precise order. This allows me to build a group of entities that end up being the final artwork. My goal is to create projects that inspire, connect and touch people emotionally, taking the viewer on a journey through different ethereal, botanical and peaceful landscapes. I was Born in Santiago, Chile in 1973. I grew up surrounded by Chilean...
