Chris Roberts-Antieau
Those of us familiar with the cartoons of Roz Chast will greatly appreciate the beauty, with and wisdom of the artwork of Chris Roberts-Antieau. Chris is a self-taught artist from Manchester, Michigan whose fabric art is just like a Chast cartoon as a fabric painting.
To create her tapestries, Chris hunts through old five-and-dimes and country quilt shops to collect a palette of fabrics, cuts her designs freehand and finishes the detail with a sewing machine. Her limited-edition pieces are all under glass in hand-painted wood frames. Her work is featured in prestigious galleries, including the American Visionary Museum. Her work is uniquely wonderful, absolutely her own, and among the nation's best.
Chris' work can be seen at NYC's Red Truck Gallery.
