Inspired by Sister Corita Kent, Terri Friedman's meticulous weaves erupt into protest - 48 hills
Briefly

Terri Friedman’s artistic journey showcases a vibrant blend of textiles and painting, reflecting her diverse background. Originally a painter, Friedman's current work primarily involves fiber, yet her techniques are profoundly influenced by her earlier explorations in various artistic mediums. Her works are meticulously planned, with each element chosen carefully, even as they retain a spontaneous feel. Influences from artists and a politically charged philosophy imbue her pieces with deeper meanings, connecting personal narratives with broader social contexts.
I am a painter who uses the loom to paint, and I consider my palette and my words as part of my materials repertoire. My weavings feel spontaneous, but they are meticulously planned from composition to fiber choices.
I'm deeply inspired by Sister Corita Kent's work that uses abstraction and words as protest. Politics are very personal for me.
