Virginia Fitzgerald is a multidisciplinary artist whose work challenges viewers to think, to question, and to imagine new possibilities for themselves and their communities. Her practice celebrates the everyday, transforming ordinary objects and moments into the extraordinary. Whether wielding a paintbrush or using needle and thread, Fitzgerald brings attention to the overlooked and elevates it to the sacred, inviting others to observe, reconsider, and rediscover the world around them.
Embroidery has been part of the artist's studio practice since college, but Fitzerald's "Meditations Series," begun in 2025, emerged as a way to navigate and respond to the turbulence of contemporary life. These intuitive fabric collages, pieced together from scraps of cloth, thread, and found materials, serve as both personal therapy and a reflection on our collective need for repair. More than resolution, these works embody presence: the quiet act of stitching as healing, resistance, and hope.
