Erika Hewston is a textile artist from Reading, Pennsylvania who focuses in weaving. She creates richly colored textural wall hangings as well as fine woven wearable scarves and ties:
“I work primarily as a handweaver making both fine woven wearables and texturally saturated wall pieces. All of my work focuses on the interaction of vibrant colors to create striking statement pieces. My scarves and ties are all comprised of cotton, bamboo rayon, and tencel to ensure a soft product with beautiful drape. My wall pieces are a mixture of any fibrous materials I can gather within the desired color range: cotton, fleece, felt, twine, tule, acrylic, burlap, and others. This vast array of materials allows me to create pieces that are immersed in texture creating both a visual and tactile exploration for the viewer.”
