About the Exhibition
Natalie Kuenzi is an interdisciplinary artist based in Philadelphia, PA. She creates installations and sculptures from found and altered materials. Her practice centers traditions of craft and art making that celebrate the artist and viewer as agents of change and connection. Through reclamation, material innovation, and the liberating power of the imagination, Kuenzi seeks to transform how we make, how we consume, and how we connect through creative expression.
Kuenzi grew up in a family with a long history of creative practices such as crocheting, pumpkin painting, and greeting card making. Despite being makers, she is the first in her family to have the opportunity to pursue a professional career in the arts. By producing artwork using the methods learned from her family, Kuenzi honors their traditions and challenges the hierarchy associated with art media, with an eye towards specific and meaningful action to address solutions for a changing world.
