Amelia Briggs: Meadows

Amelia Briggs is an interdisciplinary artist working in fiber, painting, and installation. Her work investigates themes of interiority, memory, and transformation through plump whimsical forms that switch between the familiar and the uncanny. Through processes of sewing, cutting, stuffing, layering, and assembling, materials become vessels for embodied experience, in which personal history is absorbed and transformed into new forms. Briggs has been an artist-in-residence at Wassaic Project, Monson Arts, and the Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts.
