Bio:
Weaver, natural dyer, zine maker, loom doctor, life artist, teacher, and lifelong learner, Jasmine Petrie of Howl at the Loom resides in the forests of her childhood in Northern Michigan. She enjoys spending time with her family, tending garden, being in nature, and occasionally traveling afar.
Jasmine holds an A.A. and Certificate in Textiles from North Central Michigan College and continues to fulfill a hunger for deeper knowledge of fiber arts by seeking further study under seasoned instructors.
Artist statement:
I find inspiration from the symbiosis of the natural world, passing of the seasons, and the dilapidation of our industrialized society – and how it is all connected. I enjoy the different textures of various textiles and let them tell me what they want to be during my process, as I seek to utilize discarded materials as the focal point of many pieces. Through my studio practice, it is my mission to have as little waste as possible and to source any new materials from local and sustainable sources.
