Carrie Fertig is delighted to be participating in North East Open Studios at St. Margaret's Saturday 13th - Sunday 21st September, 2025. Carrie is an interdisciplinary artist working in performance, video, sculpture, and installation and also a metalsmith and maker in flameworked glass, the latter often getting incorporated into her performances and videos.

On display will be a selection of sculpture, including a life-size glass sheep, similar to the one currently on display at Perth Art Gallery's GLASS exhibition, videos, and glass icicles like her bespoke ones for The Fife Arms Shop, only in jewellery, much smaller, and for windows, much larger. These huge icicles are from her installation Ausklingen (Fade Away) at The Veste Coburg, the castle Prince Albert is from in Germany, and there will also be glass feathers from Homing, an installation of a six meter pair of glass dove wings at Chichester Cathedral. She'll be showing glass and hand wrought copper Highland and mythical creatures, Christmas ornaments, and blown glass sheep. NEOS is Carrie's only selling show in the UK this year. 

Since 2022, Carrie has led Health of the Sublime, a Creative Scotland supported project mapping the lived experience of wellbeing in the natural world through the lens of climate change. She will be on hand every day 10am-5pm to explain the project and ways to be involved, as well as her processes, and the stories and legends behind her wee and large scale works. In life and art, Carrie is fueled by deep immersion in nature, our connection to it and each other. She looks forward to warmly welcoming you in September for NEOS.
