Karen Fuchs is a teaching artist and designer with a background in textile design and interior architecture. She has developed and teaches curriculum that focuses on looking closely at the natural world—its forms, patterns, and structures—and creating art-making projects that are inspired by this scrutiny. She leads talks and workshops on making connections between art, science, design, and the natural and the human-made world. Her work includes cyanotypes, textiles, printmaking, collage, and assemblage.

I love sharing my curiosity and enthusiasm for the natural world, always inspiring me with its beauty and intelligence. The design and function of nature’s forms, patterns and structures has led me to deep research and development of creative projects and work exploring process, various materials and techniques.
