Lia Huntington Philadelphia, PA liahuntington.com @brick.and.wire TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF I’m Lia Huntington, a mixed media artist specializing in metals, fiber, and photography. I’m the owner and founder of Brick & Wire—a line of jewelry and photography prints that express ideas about location, public spaces, how materials change over time, and how valuable materials and experiences are. WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY WORKING ON? My art practice includes collecting images and materials from my surroundings and incorporating them into jewelry and sculptural pieces. I split my studio time between gradually creating complex jewelry pieces and sculptures and developing production jewelry pieces and related photograph prints. WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS? My goal is to continue developing my art practice and skills. I love creating an idea, planning and executing the steps, and making it into a physical object that others can use and enjoy. I enjoy seeing how the idea changes as I make decisions along the way, and how the final object is both different and similar to the original idea.
