Sarah McMurry is a fiber artist based in Missouri creating work in both Columbia and Kansas City, MO. Sarah's work combines a playful approach to making with a reverence for traditional craft methods. Using slow-processes like quilting, stitching, knitting, weaving and mending in combination with natural dye, her work offers a contemporary take on the past that unites us together. Sarah is currently pursuing a BFA in Fiber at the Kansas City Art Institute where she has a work-study position as the Weaving Room Monitor. She is the recipient of a Susan Lordi Marker award for excellence in Fiber, and a Barbara Kuhlman Foundation Scholarship.
