    Season 6 | Episode 1: Interview with Amanda Hamrick
    Apr 18 2025
    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.

  • Season 6 | Episode 2: Interview with Isabel Atha

    Season 6 | Episode 2: Interview with Isabel Atha
    Apr 15 2025
    Isabel Marie Atha is a 23 year old Animation graduate from the University of Alabama in Huntsville. In her last semester, she fell in love with tattoo art, and rapidly switched her portfolio concentration from video game concept art to tattoo designs. Her passion for game art never quite left her, though, and she’s a proud developer for the indie game “Phantasmal Reality” which was nominated by UAH for consideration in the BAFTA Student Awards. Isabel is inspired by all things creepy, medical, and surreal, but also dainty and feminine. Her portfolio is built around beautiful women, bugs, and biological phenomena. She’s inspired by pop surrealist painters like Camilla d’Errico and gothic manga masterminds like Yana Toboso and Junji Ito. She’s a proud workaholic who’s almost always at her jobs, saving up money for a tattoo apprenticeship— but when she’s not working, painting, collaborating with Team Phantasmal, or designing merchandise, she’s probably watching films with her friends and making extensive tier lists about them.
