Furrows I, II, III by Hope Hellberg

Hope Hellberg is a graduate of Savannah College of Art & Design and a fibers artist with a concentration in installation and fine art. A Boston native, she finds inspiration from the vast array of textures to the most intricate of details. Working conceptually and often dabbling with topics regarding human condition, she explores the use of various materials and mediums in order to communicate such content. Her body of work conveys many situations, emotions, and concepts that every human being experiences throughout their lifetime, with her own perspective and reflections incorporated, too. She has a strong eye for color, a love of repetition, and a fondness for texture. Her body of work includes garment design, complex beadwork, sculptural fine art, and visual displays. Hope titles this commissioned series Furrows: I, II, III as it relates to the specific action and creation of the artwork itself.
