Kim Tepe’s work looks to recreate textures and shapes found in nature. She creates microcosms with fabric and thread, recreating trees with life like tree bark, leaves, needles, lichen, moss, and individual mushroom gardens that stand alone to remind us of what is outside our door.
Tepe uses a slew of traditional and nontraditional techniques such as quilting, embroidery and felting manipulating the media into shapes. She uses scrap fabric, upholstery samples, thrifted yarn, embroidery supplies, dying what she needs to get the desired results.
