Sophia DeJesus-Sabella is an artist, weaver, and educator based in Hartford, Connecticut. She graduated with Departmental Honors in Fibers from Massachusetts College of Art and Design in 2019. Her woven and sculptural works interrogate class, gender, queerness, and utility by combining traditional craft with found construction materials.
She has been an Artist in Residence at Byrdcliffe, ACRE, Haystack Mountain School of Crafts and Hartford Artisans Weaving Center. She has received grants from New England Foundation for the Arts, Assets for Artists, and Northwest Connecticut Arts Council. DeJesus-Sabella has exhibited widely including Jewett Art Gallery (Wellesley College, MA), Visitor Center (Newburgh, NY), Ely Center for Contemporary Art (New Haven, CT) and Hudson Valley MOCA (Peekskill, NY).
