About the Artists
Fritzi Huber, a current artist at ACME Art Studios, was born to a traveling circus family, where creativity was abundant but water scarce. Drawn to the library scents of paper and the watery process it forms from, Fritzi has become locally and internationally for her mastery of hand papermaking, which she has practiced and taught for over 45 years.
Guest artist, Leslie Marsh, creates narrative embroideries whose traditional media recall the generations of women handworkers she descends from. Her processes span medieval-style soldered bookmaking, botanical printing, and needle-felting fungi from wool fiber and threads. Leslie’s work is held in private collections across the Americas, Europe and Australia. She teaches workshops in her Hampstead home studio and at various sites across the US.
Rebecca Yeomans’ current art centers her love of nature through her study of botanical contact printmaking, infusing natural dyes into fabrics and papers. A lifelong artist who learned to knit at eight years old, Rebecca and her husband Tom moved to Wilmington, NC in 1984 where she worked as a scenic artist in the film industry before transitioning fully into artmaking. Rebecca is excited to be a part of Fibrage a Trois with her fiber friends! The pieces she created for this show were pulled from previously printed inventory due to the seasonal lack of fresh leaves. They are examples of the three scenarios she have been exploring: plant still lives, paper plant portraits, and abstract plant compositions. Her process involves intuitively and playfully embellishing a printed piece with hand stitching, collage, paint, and found objects.
