A graduate of Moscow Textile Institute, Ludmila Aristova came to fiber art after a career in fashion design. She explores the relationship between light and color by combining a wide array of different fabric types, heavy machine quilting, hand painting, multiple prairie points and bead embroidery to achieve textures and complex chromatic contrasts and “illuminate” her artwork. Aristova’s award-winning works, in major museum and private collections in United States, Canada, Asia and Europe, including Museum of Arts and Design in New York, have also been featured in numerous publications.
