About the Item

JANE MILLER is represented by Fred Giampietro Gallery, New Haven, CT My current work embraces sculpting methods using textiles from sustainable recycling of cloth, fiber and found objects. I combine weaving, wrapping, felting and hand sewing in abstract whimsical sculptures or large cocoon like amulets of variant sizes. Though domestic in nature it has little or nothing to do with domesticity other than a nod to materials used by women who craft out of an affiliation with these materials or the obsessive nature of crafted textile arts I embrace the spastic and weirdly beautiful combinations to cast aside tradition as much as possible. I work wherever and whenever I have time. I use a combined studio and “portable” approach, I bring my studio wherever I go, both traveling with materials and finding them along the way. Among my inspirations for the open and productive way I work is my long time interest in “wattle and daub” a construction method using natural, readily available materials. My work is less theoretical than just about making.
