BIOGRAPHY

​

Lyndall Harris is a multimedia artist whose work bridges photography and fiber arts, transforming images into dimensional, tactile compositions. She began her artistic journey at the Fine Arts Center of Greenville, exploring a variety of mediums, and later earned a BA in New Media with a minor in Arts Management and Entrepreneurship from the University of North Carolina Asheville. Harris’s hybrid practice emphasizes materiality, imperfection, and reconstruction, using thread, torn edges, and collage to expand traditional notions of photography and fiber art. Her work reflects a fascination with memory, identity, and the ways that flaws and mistakes shape human experience.

ARTIST STATEMENT

​

My work combines photography and fiber art through a process of tearing apart and stitching photographic images into layered, tactile compositions. Guided by experimentation and intuition, I embrace accidents and imperfections rather than hiding them. Drawing from my background in sewing and quilting, I challenge traditional ideas of precision and the fixed nature of photography by treating photographs as physical, altered objects. Exposed seams, frayed edges, and imperfect stitches become symbols of vulnerability, memory, and identity—reflecting how people are shaped through fragmentation, change, and repair. Ultimately, the work rejects perfection and finds meaning and beauty in flaws and imperfections.​
