Her accompanying exhibit opens on Friday, November 6 from 5-7pm with an artist talk at 6pm, alongside artist Rae Diamond. While in residence, she will offer workshops on meditative embroidery and mask-making.
Artist Statement – Maske Maiden (Sylvia Schieber) interweaves mask-making, fiber techniques, and storytelling to create immersive, character-driven worlds that blur ritual, adornment, and identity. “Using fiber techniques and found materials, I create sculptural masks as vessels for memory and possibility. Influenced by my upbringing in an immigrant household shaped by reuse and resourcefulness, I often work with discarded and repurposed materials, drawing attention to their overlooked possibilities. Through world-building, I explore the tension between imagined lives and the forces that shape them.”
