Kristina Ricci

Fiber Art

Studio 15

Formerly a digital designer, Kristina Ricci returned to hands-on creativity in 2020 through the tactile world of fiber art—finding calm, connection, and creative spark during uncertain times.

Since then, she’s been on a mission to reimagine the everyday, transforming discarded materials like Ethernet cables, bathing suit straps, and plastic netting into colorful woven works full of texture, personality, and surprise.

Her vibrant large-scale pieces have popped up on chairs, benches, and signposts throughout Philly, inviting passersby to see the city—and its materials—through a new lens. With a love for knotting, crochet, and improvisation, Ricci’s work explores the links between people, place, and material memory.

She has participated in numerous group exhibitions across the Philadelphia region and debuted her first solo exhibition in the summer of 2025.
