Megan Klim
Sculptural Wall Art: 'Woven #2'

2022

About the Item

Megan Klim's mixed media work juxtaposes several materials on one picture plane. She highlights their inherent qualities to create surface tension which sparks a conversation and interaction between them. A physical presence is apparent in her pieces from textured encaustic woven surfaces, punctured paper to grid like structures made of thread, wire and cloth. Her drawings reference the cellular components of fiber. Klim's themes usually reference the idea of an internal/external as well as the balance between structure vs. gesture. Her work honors materials and process, frequently occupying a space between painting and sculpture. Through her use of pattern or repetition, she reflects upon human individuality while also offering a tactile visual experience. It is her goal that through the tangible, an ethereal space is created and felt instead of just seen.

Fiber Painting: 'Arras no. 3: Rainstorm'
By Gin Stone
Located in New York, NY
Hand-dyed ghost gear netting*, muslin, adhesive, foam, paint, pins, reclaimed copper flashing Recovered Ghost Gear Data: Retrieval Coordinates: 42° 10ʹN 69°52ʹW Retrieval Vessel: F/V Donna Marie (Groundfish Trawler/Scallop Dragger out of Provincetown) Water Depth: approx. 100 fathoms/183 meters/600 feet Source: pre-Magnuson-Stevens Act* foreign, most likely Russian, fishing net 'I am a multidisciplinary artist with a focus on ecofeminism using fiber and mixed media constructions. My materials include hand-dyed commercially fished line and ghost gear, recycled and antique textiles, fabric printed with cyanotype emulsions and found objects. I change the existing surface of recognizable animals by creating a veneer of unexpected color and imagery. This forces the viewer to consider the shape more carefully by visually exploring its new topography. The creation process can be likened to painting with fiber (that has been tinted with hand-mixed dyes) on a three-dimensional canvas. Intense work is spent creating the eyes and ears to convey the emotion of each animal. I look to the work of Joan Mitchell and The Quilters of Gee’s Bend...
