Opening of Ocean Meets Sky - Art Exhibition & Pop - Up Shop *EXTENDED UNTIL 7/17*
Handmade Landscapes_Ocean Meets Sky postcard-01.jpg
I have been busy working on a new collection of artwork called Handmade Landscapes: Ocean Meets Sky. This new collection is part of "Ocean Meets Sky", a pop-up shop collaboration curated by High Line Nine, between designer Teddy von Ranson, myself (artist Stephanie Eche), and interior design brand STIL.
A bit about my process: I work with natural fibers and natural dyes to create handmade landscapes. I start by binding and wrapping cotton cord then dyeing it with indigo to create a variety of shades and shapes of blue. I then weave the cord into different patterns using a loom. I often start with a sketch or a memory, but I work intuitively once I am on the loom.
Handmade Landscapes: Ocean Meets Sky
When: Opening night is Thursday 6/10, 6-8pm
Exhibition will be on view June 10th - July 5th, 2021 — Extended until July 17th, 2021, Saturday 10am - 6pm.
Where: High Line Nine | Gallery 9.9, 508 W. 28th St, New York, NY 10001
Teddy von Ranson is an American designer based in New York City. Originally from Canada, he studied in California at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles. Teddy von Ranson aims to define new American classics that capture modern American life; equally influenced by East and West Coast with strong synergies to European discernment.
Stephanie Eche, b. Gilbert, AZ, 1986, is an artist based in Brooklyn, NY. She uses found materials and natural fibers to create soft sculptures and paintings. Eche’s new collection Handmade Landscapes: Ocean Meets Sky is inspired by bodies of water, access to water, and the landscapes that water creates.
James Laycock and Gerardo Figueroa launched STIL from their Manhattan apartment in 2020. An acronym for “Stuff That I Like,” STIL is a collection of home textiles and interior design objects that they envisioned (and liked!) but couldn’t find in actuality. STIL represents the belief that pieces should not only be beautiful and luxurious but also durable and pragmatic. Each and every product has its own story and a unique journey that brought it to fruition.
