Melissa Falconett Artist Statement

I am a Hudson Valley-based artist, originally from Southern Indiana. My creative journey has led me through various mediums, but six years ago I found a deep connection with embroidery. It has become a meditative practice, a space for productive rumination on emotions, longings, challenges, and moments of beauty I wish to preserve. Each piece is a tangible record of my contemplations, a visual journal woven in thread.

My inspiration stems from the often-unnoticed details of the natural world: the intricate lines within a leaf, the ripples in water, the woven structure of a bird’s nest, the overlapping petals of a flower. I combine these organic forms with my formal design training to carefully select fabrics, threads, stitches, and colors. My aim is to create a playful balance between intense and subtle details, inviting viewers to pause, reflect, and perhaps find their own moments of contemplation within the work.

Join us on Monday, September 9th, for this special film screening.  Piermont Historical Society’s third award-winning documentary, “ALL ABOARD! Next Stop Piermont” will take you back to a time when two Railroads literally put Piermont on the map. PHS debuted the film at the Village Hall last November to a standing-room-only crowd. In April, “ALL ABOARD! Next Stop Piermont” garnered the “Best Local Documentary” award at the Nyack International Film Festival. 

You are sure to enjoy this unique Tale of Two Railroads! 

Following the screening, members of the Piermont Historical Society will be ‘on board’ 😉 for a Q&A.

The film is approximately 30 minutes long.  Register on our website events calendar
