Aareon, a textile artist from Peoria, Illinois, found his passion for fabric arts after inheriting a sewing machine from his great-grandmother, Norma Jean Clifford. This gift sparked his journey into Textile Art, blending traditional techniques with modern creativity.

With limited resources but a natural talent for repurposing, Aareon has built his practice around sustainability and innovation. He skillfully deconstructs discarded materials, transforming them into intricate works of art. His commitment to "NO SCRAPS LEFT BEHIND" reflects his environmental consciousness and dedication to honoring the materials he uses.

Aareon's work exists at the intersection of sustainability and artistic expression. His process is both intuitive and experimental, often beginning with the raw textures of discarded fabric and evolving into structured designs that challenge conventional ideas of fashion and art. Whether creating patchwork garments or abstract textile installations, Aareon’s mission is to reimagine the potential in every material and tell stories of resilience, transformation, and renewal.
