Celeste Ivory

Hi Celeste, so happy you were able to explore all of these structures while you were here! We cannot wait to see what happens when you bring digital jacquard weaving back to Florida!!!

Weaving on: Collin
Joining us from:  Tallahassee, Florida  

Tell us about yourself and what led you to the residency?
​
Celeste Ivory is a visual artist focusing on unconventional textiles and sculpture. She holds a BA in Anthropology and MFA in Studio Art, both from Florida State University where she works for the FSU Department of Art. Ivory's work investigates contemporary and future craft; as a radical act, as a force working against consumerism, as a tool for material investigation, and as an act of community-building. She is currently developing a textile arts class for the Department and is thrilled to experiment with and explore the potential of a TC2 loom.

Have you had any previous experience with Digital Weaving or Jacquard?

I have not.

Any goals for the residency you'd like to share?

To investigate creative possibilities and experience digital weaving technology.
