Manipulating the woven wire creates dynamic forms of undulating gestures and punctuated patterning that subvert weaving’s static templates. My work strikes a balance between textile and sculpture that explores a juxtaposition of comfort and complexity, fortitude and fragility." About Matter Studio Gallery With Matter Studio Gallery, Founder Karla Funderburk has realized her longstanding vision for an exhibition space in the heart of LA, where artists from Southern California can share their work and their voices. As much an art gallery as a vital, community hub that celebrates inclusiveness through artistic expression, Matter Studio Gallery fills an essential need in our ever-evolving city.
