Phyllis Poor

Artist's Statement

"My work with fiber began in earnest during the mid 80's to the mid 90's while living in Bath, England. The work of kaffe Fassett and Candace Barrouth, both U.S.A. citizens now living and working in the U.K., helped to open my eyes to the glorious and unending possibilities of fibers.

I now have channeled my work into hooking with all types of material, using the burlap as any artist would paper, and the fibers supplying a rich palette

As I begin a project, I find my piece taking on a life of its own dictating to me the next fiber to choose until finally a complicated journey reaches a joyful conclusion."
