Erica-Lynn Huberty is a pioneer in the contemporary fiber arts movement. Her work mingles textiles and sewing arts techniques with watercolor and ink, embroidery, crochet and knitting and loom-woven grounds, exploring the historical tradition of “women’s work.” Her art has been exhibited at Guild Hall, the Parrish Art Museum, Racine Art Museum, WI; David&Schweitzer Contemporary, Brooklyn; Ricco Maresca Gallery and Denise Bibro Fine Arts in Manhattan. She has created site-specific installations at the Byrd Hoffman Water Mill Center, the Leiber Collection Museum Garden, the Gardens of Onna House, East Hampton, an abandoned beach house in Bridgehampton, the Sag Harbor Whaling & Historical Museum in Sag Harbor, NY, and on Mary Mattingly’s Wetland, for The Parrish Art Museum’s ambitious “Radical Seafaring” exhibition. Her work is in the permanent collections of Onna House and the Parrish Art Museum. She is also the author of the upcoming Gothic novel, The Crewel Wing about a woman embroidery artist in late-Victorian England.
