Erica Wells is a textile artist based in Naarm (Melbourne) who repurposes discarded objects and textiles into three-dimensional works. Her practice incorporates traditional craft techniques including weaving, sewing, knitting, crochet and embroidery, bringing renewed life to unwanted materials. Erica’s practice is concerned with the effects of climate change, loss of biodiversity, and the influence textile practice has to inform and educate within contemporary fine art. She is a recipient of the 2025 Australian Wool Education Trust scholarship, and holds a Bachelor of Textiles (Design) from RMIT University.
