Wallworks
Sister Red
The math of this piece is impressive: Thirty lightweight wool sweaters were reclaimed, cut up into hundreds of pieces, assembled by the artist’s hand, and then felted using hundreds of tiny needles. The remade patchwork has all of the beauty of stained glass, humming with color and seemingly illuminated from within. Its rich palette and shades of dark and light will find harmony in any environment unafraid to host Sister Red.

Wallworks, in their most essential guise, are large-scale, one-of-a-kind wall hangings felted from reclaimed EILEEN FISHER clothing. The variety of materials, colors, and hand-arranged compositions renders each piece wholly unique. The size and textural quality of Wallworks make for a stunning addition to private and public spaces alike, providing visual impact and a modicum of acoustic dampening. Wallworks were first displayed in the Waste No More exhibit at Salone Internazionale del Mobile di Milano, the prestigious furniture and design trade fair.
