Exhibited internationally in solo and group shows, her work focuses on the natural world and how it relates to the physical body and the human experience. She explores deeply personal and connective universal stories through the meditative and hands-on practices of wet felting, weaving, sculpting, and stitching, seeking to bring the ephemeral into physical being. The growth and decay of the natural world, the duality of discomfort and attraction we feel towards it, and humanity's place within this dichotomy informs her dimensional textures and sculptural pieces. Zondag’s work has been exhibited at The Banana Factory, Bethlehem, PA; The Allentown Art Museum, PA: The International Biennial of Textile Art Scythia, Ukraine; View Arts and Culture Center, Old Forge, NY; Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive, Berkeley, CA; Cornell University, Ithaca, NY; Towson University, MD; Ceres Gallery, NYC, NY; Main Street Studio, Ballston Lake, NY; Phoenix Art Museum, Phoenix, AZ; El Museo Del Barrio, NYC, NY; The Whitney Museum of American Art, NYC, NY: Muhlenberg College, Allentown, PA; and Moravian University, Bethlehem, PA. She has been an Artist-in-Residence at Acadia National Park, The Allentown Art Museum, and The Wassaic Project, Wassaic, NY. Zondag shares her passion for handmade one-of-a-kind textile sculptures through various educational programs and residencies. As a resident artist in over twenty schools and community organizations she has led her Fiber Living Wall program, a community art project she developed in 2017 where hand felted wool living walls are collaboratively created with students of all ages and abilities. The final sculpture finds a permanent home within the school or community space. She has been the recipient of three NY Statewide Capital Regrants for Independent Artists and Community Arts, The Linny Award for Visual Artist of the Year and a Certificate of Special Congressional Recognition for Creative Excellence and Support in Pennsylvania. Her work is held in private collections, The Whitney Museum of American Art, The National Park Service and The Allentown Art Museum. She studied Fashion Design at Pratt Institute (BFA 2016).\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Green Mountain Yarn \u0026 Fiber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48058221166804,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0253\/4611\/3622\/files\/716897656_1620158883448980_8348394054243732980_n.jpg?v=1780686624","url":"https:\/\/greenmountainfibers.com\/products\/needle-felted-painting-with-mallory-zondag","provider":"Green Mountain Yarn \u0026 Fiber","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
