"Held Together By thread" An Interview With Kristen Brandt

On today’s episode of the ArtThropologist we interview Kristen Brandt. Kristen is a self-taught portraitist and embroidery artist living in the Jackson-Metro area. We discuss how her career in arts administration has dovetailed into a passion for fiber arts. Her exhibition, “Held Together by Thread,” challenges the phrase “holding on by a thread,” and explores the ways in which people are connected to each other through common interests and personal experiences, reinforcing those connections using a medium that shows stitching with even a single strand can forge ironclad bonds.
