FIBER ARTIST • SPACIAL DESIGNER • EXPERIENTIAL DESIGNER • SCULPTURE • ART DIRECTION

Hi, it is so nice to meet you!

I'm Weird Girl aka Alyx :)

Weird Girl was created in mid 2021. With an emphasis on weird and accepting you're weird. Working with unique materials and ideas to create weird.

I graduated in spring of 2022 with a Bachelors of Fine Art degree in fibers from Savannah College of Art and Design. Currently I am attending The University of Oklahoma for a Masters of Science in interior design, graduating spring 2027.
My interest include sculpture, installation design, textiles, painting, fashion, styling, color consulting, brand experience, set design, and spacial experiences. My work is defined by color, excitement, curiosity, texture, and being interactive.

I have a passion for creating interaction between textile forms in combination with inspiring experiences.

A big dreamer who can't wait to work together!
