Jeana Eve Klein is an artist and educator based in Boone, North Carolina, where she is Professor of Fibers in the Art Department at Appalachian State University. Klein’s wide-ranging studio practice addresses recurring themes of labor and value, social media and other digital relationships, language and communication, the inherent meaning in materials, the fallibility and malleability of memory, and the limitations of documentation. As a textiles generalist and conceptually driven artist, the processes and materials she uses vary from project to project, including traditional textiles techniques such as weaving and knitting as well as digital media, installation, and social practice.
