Ricki Dwyer

Ricki Dwyer is an artist from the San Francisco Bay Area, currently working in Brooklyn. His practice considers the intersections of material, industry, and the somatic. His work acknowledges drapery as the negotiation that things never fall the same way twice. Dwyer has shown extensively throughout the U.S. as well as internationally. In 2022, he had solo exhibitions with Anglim/Trimble in San Francisco, Rupert in Lithuania and participated in the Biennale de Lyon in collaboration with Nicki Green. His most recent text, Decennial, on weaving as a metaphor for mutual aid was published with The Wattis Institute of Contemporary Art. He has been artist in residence with Recology, Jupiter Woods Gallery in London, The Textile Arts Center in New York, ARTHAUS Havana, and most recently in the foundry of Kohler Co, in Wisconsin. Dwyer is currently a Bronx Museum AIM Fellow and teaches with Parsons School of Design. He received his undergraduate degree in Fibers from the Savannah College of Art and Design and an MFA from UC Berkeley.
