Amanda Spayd, a resident of semi-rural Ohio, is a designer, artist, and fragrance alchemist. Her love of texture, antiques, color, and the natural world, combined with an obsessive attention to detail combine in the creation of her mixed-media sculptures. At once endearing and unsettling, her fabric-and-clay creatures evoke ideas of cast-off children’s toys and ill-conceived taxidermy experiments with human teeth. When she’s not sitting in front of her hand-cranked antique sewing machine or boiling up homemade black walnut dye in the backyard, Amanda can be found trolling antique stores for beautifully decayed objects, formulating handmade perfumes and soaps,or brewing a great cup of coffee.
