The Complexity of Simplicity: Works by Miriam Carpenter
3 PM
Miriam Carpenter is a contemporary artist and designer based in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. As a Rhode Island School of Design alumna, she began her career designing alongside Mira Nakashima. Through new processes, she investigates the mundane, unveiling the hidden complexities around us. Imbued with heart and soul, her action-oriented form of art is a union of traditional technique, ingenuity and talent that is rooted in a conscious effort to create lasting positive change. Carpenter’s work can be found internationally in both private and public collections and has been exhibited most notably at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Michener Art Museum, Wharton Esherick Museum, Fuller Craft Museum, Marshall M. Fredericks Sculpture Museum, Museum for Art in Wood, Philadelphia International Airport, SOFA Chicago, Design Miami and Moderne Gallery where she is currently represented. She has been awarded six international residencies over the past nine years and is an active participant in artist collaborations around the globe.
Carpenter explores the possibilities within materials as she seeks to create new forms and solve challenging design problems. Appearing deceptively simple at first glance, each of Carpenter’s pieces involve complex calculations and an intimate understanding of her chosen material.
“Miriam Carpenter’s work is strikingly beautiful and amazingly complex. She draws inspiration from the natural world and encourages viewers to be more attune to the beauty that surrounds us, from the smallest feather to the largest tree.”
- Laura Igoe, Michener Art Museum Chief Curator
