About materialandmovement

Material Movement encompasses dancing and art making from ballet to blues and drawing to glass. The girl behind this concept is Heather. She says hello. Heather has been dancing and making art all her life and Material Movement is her business as well as her passion. Heather Kraft was born in Boise, Idaho and raised in Portland, Oregon. She graduated from the Alberta College of Art and Design in 2008 with a BFA focusing on sculpture, fibre, and glass. Heather’s recent focus on sculpture in glass has been heavily inspired by her lifelong involvement in dance. Material Movement, a company that she started in 2009, has served as an umbrella for her artistic endeavors, both as a dance instructor and a sculptor. Her current line of work, Incarnate Anew, brings together reclaimed porcelain tableware, found objects, and fine metal work to create wearable, sculptural pieces.
