Allison Kunath
Kunath’s work is fueled by the tension between her need for both solitude and connection. Creating self-reflective work that explores various forms of communication, Kunath uses her relationships as her main inspiration. Examining the way she relates to herself, her community, and her environment, she makes works that are meditative responses to those connections. The balance of form, line and variety of styles have been applied to the medium of rugs with ease, evoking deconstructed and nuanced patterns in wool and silk. Apart from her rug designs, Allison’s studio works are primarily on paper and canvas, and her murals can be found in the US, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama and Costa Rica.
