Bio:
Felicia Murray is a fiber artist from Maine, who now lives and works out of her studio at NW Marine Artworks in Portland, Oregon. Her tactile work explores motifs from nature, while creating imagined landscapes of color and texture. She received her B.F.A. in Fibers from The Savannah College of Art and Design in 2019, and has since been continuing to develop her work through collaborations, commissions, community projects, and exhibitions.
She has created large-scale fiber art for clients worldwide, and has worked with brands such as NIKE, Gallagher Designs, SCAD, and Wieden and Kennedy.
Statement:
My work is a study of growth, both the growth I see in nature and the growth I see in myself. Each artwork that I create is a reflection of where I’ve been, what I’ve felt, and what I’ve learned. Using fiber art techniques, I create imagined landscapes of color and texture, inviting each viewer to experience something different in the work. Each piece is built through a tactile process that requires presence, patience, and meditation. The repetitive actions of tufting, felting, and stitching echo the quiet rhythms of the natural world and the cycle of growth and decay. I am drawn to the overlooked motifs in nature and the textures in forgotten objects. I find stories and dreams within, dissecting what I see into art that lives somewhere between reality and abstraction. My work invites a slowness, a curiosity, and a moment to breathe, wonder, and grow.
