Artnet wrote about fiber artist and FIT alum Melissa Joseph’s solo show at Rockefeller Center and talked to her about how her art practice has evolved. Joseph said, “I love needle felting because it’s painterly. … I was so excited by this magical language that I felt, more than with any other material, I was able to bring everything I’ve learned together, all the things I knew about painting and sculpture, and all the things I knew about teaching kids form and composition, aggregating these disparate bodies of knowledge and skill sets.”
