Mary Bero

Mary Bero's intimate, decorative fiber works combine embroidery techniques with painting, drawing and sculptural elements to create primitive explosions of vibrant color and emotion. Her chaotic, figurative work, which emerges from fears and dreams, is meant to provoke and intrigue. Because of their intimate scale and frantic patterning, Bero’s mostly figurative works have a way of burrowing themselves into one’s consciousness.
