About the artist
Kiva Motnyk (b.1977) lives and works between New York City and the Catskills region of Upstate New York. A graduate of Rhode Island School of Design, Motnyk worked in the fashion industry before pivoting to her art textiles practice. In addition to Object & Thing, Motnyk’s work has been included in group exhibitions with Bridget Donahue, Egg Collective and Ralph Pucci. In 2014, Motnyk founded Thompson Street Studio, which brings together her interests in both art and commerce through a robust production of fabric-based functional works. She has also collaborated with Susan Cianciolo in the design collective Run Home, which was part of the Performa 19 Biennial. Motnyk was an artist participant in Look Alive at Guild Hall (East Hampton, New York) in 2024.
