Stefanie Neuner
Summerville, SC
I grew up and currently live in Summerville South Carolina. I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1995, from the USC Columbia in Art Education. In 2005, I received a MIS degree from Virginia Commonwealth University. During my coursework at VCU I studied textile dying and quilting. My thesis show consisted of several art quilts with hand dyed fabric.
In 2006 I moved back to Summerville and have taught art in all grade levels k-12 within DD2 Schools. In 2018 I participated in Artfields a juried show in Lake City. This year my work SIB Self Injurious Behavior was picked for Sacred Threads quilt exhibition and will tour the country for the next two years.
My current work is about Autism. In 2009 my son, Freddie, was diagnosed with Autism. Freddie’s absence of language, fear, and social skills have made me a courageous advocate. His absence of communication causes anxiety, tempers, and self-mutilation. I appreciate the fact that he is unable to mask his emotions.
