Textile artist Carole Harris is a Detroit native. Her mother introduced her to needle arts at an early age. After receiving a BFA in art and interior design from Wayne State, she began to explore fibers as an art form. Many of her art quilts have architectural themes but she is most fascinated by the interplay of hue and pattern, often drawing inspiration from the color, energy, movement, and rhythms of ethnographic rituals as well as jazz, blues and gospel music. Harris’ goal is to make her quilts dance with the same excitement, exuberance and joy that music gives her. Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries nationally and internationally, and she is much in demand as a lecturer and juror.
