About
Andrea Fischer is a Denver based installation artist and fashion maker working primarily with recycled fiber and reclaimed materials. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire.
Her practice centers on immersive, tactile environments that transform ordinary spaces into playful, otherworldly worlds. Through storytelling, color, and labor intensive craft techniques, Andrea creates one of a kind sculptures and installations using recycled yarns and found textiles. These works often envelop existing surfaces, softening architecture and inviting viewers to experience space through touch, movement, and sensation beyond the visual.
Deeply committed to sustainability, Andrea’s work celebrates the unexpected beauty of discarded materials. By reworking familiar fibers and household references, she challenges ideas of waste, value, and permanence. Recycled materials are given new life through bold color, texture, and form, creating spaces that feel both comforting and strange, playful yet intentional.
Alongside her studio practice, Andrea teaches classes and workshops focused on sewing and yarn based techniques. She enjoys guiding beginners and experienced makers alike through hands-on processes, encouraging confidence, experimentation, and care for materials. Her approach to teaching mirrors her artistic work, emphasizing curiosity, patience, and the belief that making by hand is a powerful way to connect with materials, memory, and self
