Artists' Biographies and Statements
Sophie Glenn
Sophie is a metalworker and furniture maker currently based in Reading, PA. She makes classic furniture designs recreated out of steel to give voice to women in both the woodworking and metal fields, and she utilizes steel in the making of her work to explicitly expand upon the materials that are considered to be part of the fine furniture making field.
Jody Graff
I am a multimedia visual artist living and working in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. My passion for using the power of design to celebrate and elevate the human condition comes through in my fine art, client graphic design work and in the classroom. I thoroughly enjoy exploring projects at every scale (miniature, life-size and monumental). I have a keen interest in environmental issues, a science nerd's love of insects, leaves and trees and an insatiable curiosity. My hope is that my work will encourage viewers to see and consider the natural world in a new way.
Jessica Eldredge
How do we see another's perspective - is it possible? No one sees the same color, a sense or sensation that is beyond words sometimes. The red I see is not the red you see. I think about that when I make art, no one else will see it exactly as I see it, but will they feel it - the joy, the love, the presence in each line, each drop of color? Will they know the way that each part is an exact moment, never to be again, a combination of pigment and water, the brush touches down, with more or less pressure a line from eye to hand to fingers holding and guiding, light, all there in that one small mark, that then joins all the others, finds its place in the grid, captured in the net. Each color is a small story, singular and collective, lighter or darker, talking to its neighbors, voice clear. Every part is a reflection of the choice to be present: color, water, brush, surface, body, heart reaching forward to now, back, all the way back, tens of thousands of years to the impulse still visible in dark caves discovered.
