Amy Wilson More Art
American, b. 1973
Amy Wilson received her BFA from the School of Visual Arts, New York, in 1995 and her MFA from Yale University in 1997. Her drawings explore the tensions between her inner life and the exterior world, incorporating personal stories and observations along with commentary about current events both personal and newsworthy. Her small-scale watercolor drawings, etchings, and books feature tiny, hand-written texts and an ever-changing cast of talkative girls. Wilson has had solo shows at BravinLee Programs, Bellwether Gallery, MoMA-PS1, and The Drawing Center, and has participated in group exhibitions at PS1/MOMA, The Drawing Center, Josee Bienvenue Gallery, and the Grolier Club (all in New York) and the Pera Museum (Istanbul). She teaches drawing and art history at the School of Visual Arts, New York.to

We Sank To The Bottom
By Amy Wilson
Located in Red Bank, NJ
I am a multi-disciplinary artist who has professionally shown my work in dozens of galleries and museums since the late 1990s. But while my work can take many different forms, my practice is rooted in drawing. Whether I am working on the watercolor and acrylic pieces, or fiber-based pieces, every project and every idea begins with a drawing. Through that process I lay out my ideas, ask myself questions, experiment with different options, and try to resolve all the formal and conceptual issues I will attempt in my final piece.
The themes I have explored in my work from 1999 on, and even before then, have remained the same even though my style has shifted radically. I have been interested in exploring self-portraiture, personal narratives, femininity, politics, and the use of text in art. I have remained constant in my exploration of critical theory and art history, and drawn influence from artists as diverse as Joseph Beuys, Henry Darger, and Adrian Piper...

Jamavar: Ecru - Embroidered Tapestry Wall Hanging
Located in Asheville, NC
Jamavar
The Jamavar of Kashmir is an exquisite heritage textile of India. The original Jamavar was a yard-long shawl of pashmina wool with delicate patterns handwoven in multicolored silk weft threads. Its authentic designs are finely intricate, imparting gentle aristocracy with its most outstanding and popular motif being the elongated teardrop, originally called 'buteh'. The 'buteh' is what one now recognizes as the 'paisley'.
These artworks are compositions of the timeless 'buteh' of the Jamavar. The wall panels are embroidered with fine thread cords couched along the pattern.
A note on handmade:
A handmade product is always appealing due to the irregularities in its workmanship. This is what sets it apart from machine made or computerized; the perfection they offer feels synthetic or artificial. Especially when one speaks of art and craft.
These wall panels are works of hand worked embroideries. Imperfections such as an occasional puckering of the base material are expected with the kind of embroidery stitches used.
You are assured these artworks are embroidered by highly skilled artisans (it is not possible for craftsmen of lesser experience to create these pieces) The materials used for the embroideries are of superior quality only.

«Celebration» Large Hand-Tufted Tapestry by Julia Kiryanova
By Julia Kiryanova
Located in Oslo, NO
For Julia Kiryanova, her artwork is a dialogue – a dialogue which she beautifully facilitates, layering her work with various techniques.
At the heart of much of her work an inherent fascination for people lies, intimately displaying abandoned figures seemingly floating in an abstract dream world, where time has stopped everything, but them.
Julia Kiryanova has exhibited work at Amsterdam museum, Museum Op Solder and The Holocaust Museum...
