Meghan Martin

Meghan Martin is an artist blacksmith currently living in Western North Carolina. Originally from central Vermont, Meghan began her metalworking career through the apprenticeship model. She is a two time recipient of The Vermont Folklife Center’s Traditional Arts Apprenticeship Grant, and completed a two year Core Fellowship at Penland School of Craft in 2016.  Meghan creates a wide range of work, including functional objects for the home, hand tools, and an evolving series of sculptural wall pieces. She draws inspiration from nature and her work as a gardener, creating pieces that delicately reference time, erosion, rock formations and other geologic phenomena.
