MICA's Fiber faculty are interdisciplinary artists who work across media - sculptural, textile, social, performances and events. We are designers, writers, sewers, sculptors and visionaries that have a love for the textile terrain.
My work forms from effect and intellect, inextricably. Current work focuses on abstract sculptures (hand-felted wool and papier-mache) drawing, reading, weaving, and writing.
Baltimore based artist Susie Brandt has been progressively scouring the textile terrain since she sewed her first dress at age seven.
My collaged constructions and architectural installations are guided by traces of past and person that lie deep within used objects and spaces.
Liz Ensz was born in Minnesota to a resourceful family of penny-savers, metal scrappers, and curators of cast-offs.
Marla's work engages with transformation, adornment, and healing through collaboration, performance, and service.
Valeska Maria Populoh was born in Germany and now lives in Baltimore. Before beginning her work as an artist and cultural organizer, Valeska worked as a policy advocate and educator on environmental and social justice issues.
I’m a textile artist and I’ve been a faculty member in the Fiber Department since 1994.
