About the Item

Fidelia is a striking mixed-metal composition by contemporary artist Carolyn Millstein, known for her innovative use of reclaimed materials. This piece features a grid of copper and lead-coated copper roofing meticulously woven with steel wire. The interplay of warm copper tones and cool, weathered grays creates a dynamic surface that shifts with light, evoking both permanence and transformation. Leaf-like forms throughout the geometric grid suggest organic resilience within industrial remnants. Millstein’s work often explores themes of sustainability and memory, transforming salvaged materials into objects of enduring beauty. Millstein writes in her artist statement: “For me, the material invites the process… I like to stretch my own expectations of one material—metal—by trying to get it to behave like something it’s not, to cross over to the realm of other materials—such as fabric.” In Fidelia, this philosophy is fully realized: the work evokes the warmth and familiarity of a quilt while introducing a subtle tension through its weight and rigidity. The artist’s practice reflects a deep engagement with history and place, honoring the resourcefulness of earlier generations while reimagining traditional craft through contemporary means.
