meet the artist:
Heather Stearns

I am a collage artist who works intuitively, weaving narratives that encapsulate the vast spectrum of human emotions. 

 

My interest and specialty is specifically discarded/found material, challenging perceptions about beauty and worth. 

 

Each piece of art I create is a testament to the transformative power of art, where what was once deemed as waste is reborn with purpose and meaning.  

 

This process of transformation mirrors my own personal journey, where collage became a beacon of hope and strength after a near-death experience, offering both solace and purpose. 

 

I invite the viewer to find beauty in the overlooked and to appreciate the continuous dance between creation and decay.

 

My artwork serves as a reminder that from the

remnants of the past, new beginnings can emerge, each fragment telling its own story, yet contributing to

a more profound whole – a “oneness”.

​

Outside of the world of collage art,

I have an End-of-Life Doula Certificate

and am Reiki II Certified.

​

You can find me in Vermont

with my studio mate/rescue dog, Marshall.
