Paula J. Bowers is a Michigan-based fiber and mixed-media artist whose work explores the emotional power of color through wool, silk, and found materials. Using wet felting, layered textiles, and sculptural construction, she creates immersive works that blur the boundaries between painting, fiber art, and mixed media.
Inspired by flowers, water, and organic forms, Bowers transforms traditional fiber techniques into richly textured surfaces that evoke movement, transformation, and wonder. Her work often incorporates natural and reclaimed materials, adding depth, symbolism, and tactile complexity to each piece.
Beginning with weaving on Navajo looms built by her father, Bowers has developed a distinctive visual language that combines vibrant color with dimensional form. She has exhibited nationally, including eight participations in ArtPrize, and her work is held in corporate and private collections throughout the United States.
