“Room for a View” – An exhibit featuring works by fiber-based artist Lisa Klakulak

Room for a View “is an exploration of the correlation between brain and body memory of familial and familiar social experiences and the nature of the wet felting process, namely its reduction of airspace.” – Lisa Klakulak

Viewing is available during open Owen Hall hours. 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM (M – F)

On March 17 from 7:00 – 9:00 PM, Lisa Klakulak will host an in-person lecture.

Lisa Klakulak is a fiber-based artist and educator who has maintained a home and studio for her business, STRONGFELT, in Asheville, NC since 2006. Klakulak works the medium of wool into figurative sculpture and body adornment through intensifying processes of wet felting, natural dyeing and free-motion machine embroidery. Her work has been featured widely in print publications, fine craft exhibitions and acknowledged through the American Craft Council Awards of Excellence. With a reputation for technical precision and its opposite, wanderlust, her career and aesthetic have been marked by worldwide travel to conduct workshops. Completing a Master’s Degree in Sculpture in 2020 at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, Klakulak’s recent work investigates the correlation of concepts of space in material, environments and the psyche.
