ABOUT THE ARTIST
o-founder of the Nubian
s well as Nubian Sisters & Company. She comes from a long lineage of dressmakers that have mastered sewing and cooking. Her approach to sewing is similar to her approach to cooking - she enjoys experimenting and rarely follows patterns or recipes verbatim. Glendora loves the texture and pattern of fabrics and is particularly intrigued by the creative possibilities they offer. Glendora shared “when the fabric speaks to me, I try to listen … When a piece turns out well, it has movement and balance, tension as well as tranquility. Color progression, patterns and organic shapes make my heart go-a-flutter.”
Overall, the focus of Glendora’s artwork is to embrace traditional textile crafts. She enjoys working with fabric, thread, and yarn and is also inspired by her African American ancestry. That is what informs her work, impacts her artistic sensibilities, and indulges her desire to create exciting contemporary works, employing traditional skills.
