Amber Roper, Fibers Artist: Chaotic But Colorful (S2 E28)
Amber Roper is a fibers artists, considered by Saatchi Arts to a "Rising Star" in their elite group of 35 under 35 international artists in 2020. She is founder of the Bluhen Studio in London, England, which translates to "Flourish and Blossom," and you will soon learn how perfect this name is for Amber.
Amber grew up in London, and despite initial wanting's to break free, like many a restless young-adult, she stayed-put given her being accepted to the prestigious Central Saint Martins University. She found the philosophy of that institution to be a perfect fit, especially given her needing a bit of a hand-up. Her background is modest, being first-generation-college from working class family, and with many siblings. Frankly speaking, many (including Amber) would not have called her university material. Complicating things more, she learned that she was carrying a diagnosis of Dyslexia, which answered many questions for Amber.
Amber Roper is amazing in her recognition that support in the form of having her creativity be not only be recognized and seen, but to also be "championed" by her parents, and more recently her musically-inclined partner.
Amber has since graduated from Central St. Martins, she has exhibited internationally, garnered critical acclaim, awards and notable, a tremendous sense of balance and appreciation for her role as a a new mom, and an artist. That is what drew us to her and it was a total pleasure to talk with Amber Rober.
