Conceptual artist Stephen Wilson's education of textilebased techniques began with a freelance career in New York's Garment Industry of the 90's.

His practice quickly grew into a multifaceted studio art endeavor, with Wilson's skill in digitized-embroidery at the core of his technique. Employing embroidery, painting, 3D printing, photography, sculpture and more, Wilson's mixed-media assemblages are unique explorations of contemporary themes.

His pieces often contain millions of embroidery stitches and take hundreds of hours to create.
