Textile Art

In her textile artwork, Mary investigates humankind's contradictory qualities and the multitude of viewpoints contained within the world of humanity. She enjoys using bold colors to make statement pieces.

She received a Jerome Fiber Artist Project Grant in 2018 and her completed body of work was exhibited at Textile Center in 2019. She will have a solo exhibit at the Phipps Center for the Arts in 2021.
