Amber O'Harrow - Art 2010

Works of art produced by Amber O'Harrow in 2010. Amber O’Harrow received her BFA with Honors in Textile Design and Fiber Art from Rhode Island School of Design in 1991. She her MA in Metal Arts and 3-D Design and then her MFA in Metal Arts and Sculpture, at the University of Iowa, studying with Professor Chunghi Choo. Amber lives on a small farm outside of Iowa City, where she works in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional mediums and forms, that show a strong sense of textile structures and natural forms. Nature has always been a strong theme in her work and the personal act of traditional farming, as well as the ecology of the prairie where she now lives, are direct influences on her work. She considers herself an “integrated method artist”, working in many techniques and materials in order to make a more direct and intuitive expression of her experiences through her work.
