Annie Broderick

Annie Broderick is a mixed media artist working at the intersection of textiles and metal to explore the power of duality through material poetics. Drawing inspiration from the needlework traditions of her maternal lineage and the luxury auto culture of the mid-twentieth century, her work highlights the connection between opposites—soft and hard, fluid and rigid, light and heavy—using contrast to generate dynamic, sophisticated forms that embody both elegance and strength.

Through purposeful manipulation of materials, Annie creates works that transcend the inherent properties of their primary material. The result is a powerful duality: the delicate is made strong, and the rigid is made fluid. This interplay of contrasting qualities evokes a sense of wonder and invites a deeper engagement with the complexity of the artwork.
