Biography
Photo: Daniel Browne
My work is always asking how we, as human beings, can encourage intimacy with the nonhuman world that surrounds us.
Martha Tuttle (b. 1989, Santa Fe, New Mexico) is a multimedia artist whose practice explores our relationship to the elemental and the surrounding environment. Interweaving sculpture, textile, and painting, she creates subtle, materially rich compositions that investigate impermanence, place, and the tension between the organic and the constructed.
Working with earthen materials—plant dyes, stone pigments, wool, linen, and silk—Tuttle constructs fractured topographies that reframe geometric abstraction through the lens of the natural world. Her surfaces often incorporate stone, charred wood, and cast aluminum, generating nuanced tensions between opacity and transparency, weight and lightness, interior and exterior.
