Weaving Storytelling and Healing | Karen Hampton, Alcalde Studio and Farm

Connecting with history, nature, and the land, fiber artist Karen Hampton weaves healing into her art, land, and life.
As an anthropologist, farmer, fiber artist, and storyteller, Karen has a unique perspective.
Learn how racism has shown up in her world of being an artist and what she's learned from that, and how she's transforming, rewilding, and rewriting that story for not just herself, but for humanity.
This conversation is peppered with wonderful gardening hacks!
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Karen Hampton, a 2022 American Craft Council Fellow, is a conceptually based fiber artist who addresses issues of colorism and kinship. Hampton is recognized as a figurative storyteller who weaves together textures and colors of the ancient world with that of an imagined future. Using her training in the fiber arts with her training in anthropology, she synthesizes the weaver's role with that of a griot, the storyteller.
