Interview with:rachel kranzberg miller [rachelkranzbergmiller]
ART
 | What do you do? How do you define yourself as an artist? I call myself an artist only after several years of coming to terms with being able to call myself one. I have been a painter. I have worked as a fashion designer, a decorative painter and a jewelry designer. I have always had a compulsion to create.
My current passion is for metalsmithing. I primarily work with fine silver precious metal clay. I make jewelry and judaica objects. |
| Your biography in four lines. I graduated from Boston University with a BFA in painting in 1984. I graduated from the Fashion Institue of Technology with a degree in Fashion Design a year later. I worked as a knitwear and sportswear designer in New York for about 12 years. I moved back to St. Louis married with children and then divorced and have embraced my artistic roots again. |
| Do you upload your work to the web? If so, where could we see it? |
| How is an idea born? For you, what is inspiration? I am inspired by what is important to me. I started making Judica objucts a year ago because my faith is a very important part of my life. I think that creating with love makes that object more special. It shows in your work. |
| How do you evaluate whether an idea is good or not? I never think anything I make is good enough. I constantly try to change and improve. It' not always a good thing for me. I try to make it a positive experience, |
| How should a work of art be evaluated? I have stopped trying to figure this one out. Art is very personal and subjective. Some people think it is decorative, some like it to be very intellectual. I just think you should like what you like, for your own personal reasons, I'm sure they are not mine. |
| Does it pain you to let go of a piece you have sold? No, it makes me happy to know someone has apprciated what I have created. |
