Erika Zambello

Erika Zambello combines fiber art, memoir, and nature exploration to tell stories through quilts, fiber, and textiles. While fiber art is often associated with work completed “in the home,” Erika deliberately combines these crafts with nature and science themes to explore connections between people and the natural world. Erika’s work and writing have been featured in Parade magazine, the New York Times, Piecework, Spin Off, Interweave, and National Parks magazine. Her fiber art pieces have been exhibited in Tallahassee City Hall, the Gadsden Art Center and Museum, Thomasville Center for the Arts, 621 Gallery, Dairy Barn Arts Center, the Tallahassee Museum, as well as in the Jacksonville and Tallahassee, Florida, airports.
