ARTIST STATEMENT
I am driven by the technical challenge of re-creating something beautiful from reclaimed fabric. My work is about seeing the hidden potential in a pair of old jeans. I love the challenge of taking it apart and putting it back together in a way that highlights its best parts and turn it into modern bags that are built to last and designed to look sharp.
Patricia Romeo is the owner and sole creator of PRJ Creations which began with her love of fabric, especially the possibilities of using reclaimed denim.
In addition to her passion for sewing, Patricia furthered her artistic desire by studying studio art at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University and earned both a post-baccalaureate and graduate degree. She has created art in media such as watercolor, oil, printmaking, and mixed media collage.
She exhibits and sells her work at local arts and crafts venues within the MetroWest region all throuhout the year.
