Artist Janis Ledwell-Hunt ofUnfettered Co.crafts fiber sculptures that show the interconnectedness of our world.
The pieces are beautiful in their intricacy and thought-provoking in the combinations and meanings they convey.
Ledwell-Hunt looks to the circle of life as a catalyst for her work.
Im comforted by the suggestion that illness and deathwhen rethought as decompositionare ways of nourishing different forms of life/living.
It helps to capture the essence of her artistic practice.
They march to battle.
It leads Ledwell-Hunt to pose the question, When bodies hollow out, what can flourish in those fissures?
Thats the sense of post-human possibility that Im trying to fashion in fiber.
Although the heavy topics inform her work, Ledwell-Hunt wants viewers to infer something different.
I hope viewers will take away a sense of optimism from these pieces.
But, truthfully, if they pause to ponder them at allthats the greatest privilege I can imagine.
Fiber artist Janis Ledwell-Hunt explores the cycle of life and our interconnected world in her textile sculptures.
