Madeline Kibbe is a textile artist who has made Point Arena her home
for the last 15 years. Specializing in handpainted silk, she creates
scarves, neckties, lampshades and yardage for commissions, galleries and
several annual craft shows. These silks are one of a kind, colorful and
playful. Her work is influenced by the Scandinavian textile tradition and
reflects an appreciation of the Japanese aesthetic.
This year she has added table lamps resulting from a year long
collaboration with Laura Zindel Ceramics as well as duvet covers. This
will be her 2nd studio tour. Madeline was born in Connecticut and
graduated with a BFA in painting from Rhode Island School of Design in
1988. The switch to silk happened by chance about nine years ago and it
was immediately apparent that she had found the medium that would truly
inspire her.
