Abigail Henthorne

Abigail Henthorne is a textile artist who constructs fiber drawings using yarn. Born in 1999, she resides in Arkansas, where she employs various weaving and knot-tying techniques, including crochet, embroidery, latch hook, and tufting, to create diverse marks.

She finds her subject matter in the natural world. Exploring nature’s individuality, Henthorne investigates the visible world while highlighting the world’s rarest living creatures—endangered species. Observing diverse terrains and bodies of water, she finds beauty in the biologically established color palettes nature yields and reimagines them with fiber.
