Merida Studio, based in Fall River, Massachusetts, operates as an artist workshop and residency centered on textile art. It collaborates with contemporary artists to develop site-specific works and to extend the history and practice of textile art. The studio was founded on principles of savoir-faire, emphasizing skilled craft as a core aspect of its program. In addition to its workshop and residency, Merida Studio maintains two dedicated galleries in New York and Boston that host exhibitions at the intersection of textile, sculpture, and functional art. Each exhibition reflects the studio’s goal to honor materials and human hands while expanding textile art into new forms. In August 2020, Merida Studio launched the Portfolio Collection, drawing on historic motifs from the Renaissance and Byzantine eras.
