Lydia Harder
Micro/Macro, Spring 2023 | BFA, 2023
Lydia Harder is a sculptor and textile artist currently living and working in Chicago, IL. Her work takes root in the investigation into the ritual elements and semiotics of domestic culture and dress. Often taking the form of a button up, a quilt, an everyday item; her work strives to seek out the histories that form these objects as well as the functions that turn them into symbols of beauty and culture both on a micro and macro scale. Utilizing practices of sewing, weaving, dyeing, sound, and image creation she is able to draw attention to the foundational as well as sentimental nature of objecthood and its link with living memory.
