Timothy Maddox
From an early age Timothy Maddox had to keep his
fingers moving. He always needed to have something in
his hands. He now focuses this energy on his love for
creating three dimensional objects. “Making objects
keeps me fulfilled and busy,” Maddox says. “The
materials excite me and allow for a lifetime of discovery.”
Maddox constructs steel-framed wood furniture that is
part of the Silver Fox Gallery collection. He studied at the
Penland School of Craft and graduates this spring from
the Kendall College of Art and Design in Grand Rapids,
Michigan with a degree in Sculpture and Functional Art.
After graduation, Maddox will open a co-operative studio
where dedicated artists and designers can share
resources, space, knowledge, and ideas.
Maddox was chosen as a Niche Magazine Student
Awards Finalist at the 2007 Philadelphia Buyers’ Market
of American Craft. He is the 2007 recipient of the
Windgate Fellowship. In 2006, his work was included in
an exhibition titled “Fine Contemporary Craft” at
ArtSpace in Raleigh, North Carolina. In June of this year,
a piece commissioned by the North Carolina Museum
of Art will be exhibited at that museum in Raleigh.
