Anni Altshuler (Philadelphia, PA) is interested in the dual
artistic and functional roles of the decorative arts, and is inspired by the
patterns and feminine narratives found in French toiles, Japanese woodblock
prints and the charm that can be seen in fashion that verges on costume. The
loosely autobiographical characters and objects that populate Altshuler’s images
reflect her daily routines and relationships. Her female characters are not
triumphant, but are clearly working towards finding their way and place in the
world.
Altshuler has designed a line of kitchen textiles entitled "Best and Better" which debuted at The Print Center in 2010. She is a recent graduate of the University of the Arts and is an artist member of Space 1026.
