Season 6 | Episode 1: Interview with Amanda Hamrick
Amanda (she/her) is a textile artist specializing in sustainability and natural dyeing. After a decade in New York City’s art and fashion scenes, she moved to Eufaula, Alabama, in 2021 to reconnect with nature and focus on her family. This transition deepened her commitment to organic materials and eco-conscious practices.
Inspired by motherhood, Amanda explores plant-based dyes and the longevity of textiles, blending traditional techniques with modern design. Her work celebrates change, sustainability, and our bond with the natural world. She is passionate about preserving textile heritage while innovating with natural processes.
Amanda’s artistic journey began early, studying at the Fashion Institute of Technology and Parsons School of Design. She has exhibited at the Kentuck Festival of the Arts, where she won a Merit Award in 2023, as well as Bells Gallery and the Fearrington Art Show. Through her evolving practice, she continues to create meaningful, sustainable art.
