Robert Mertens | Ephemeral Threads | Staunton, VA.

  • Summary

  • Robert Mertens’ fiber sculptures push the boundaries of traditional craft, blending scale, decay, and resilience into hauntingly beautiful works. His upcoming solo show, Ephemeral Threads, showcases large-scale woolen sculptures that explore themes of mortality and impermanence, where materials like steel wool rust and evolve over time. Inspired by his personal battle with cancer, Mertens’ art transforms fear into beauty, inviting viewers to confront the fragility of life.
