Jane Reichle (b. 1998, Bryan, TX) is a self-taught embroidery and textile artist based in Austin, Texas. In 2022, Reichle exploded onto the scene and made waves in the industry after a series of sold-out gallery exhibitions and a prominent feature in Texas Monthly. Each of her pieces is a one-of-a-kind gem. She tells a resonant story— her concepts and narratives are then transferred onto fabric through the intricate art of hand-stitching. Reichle’s delicate handwork is imbued with a sense of heartfelt reflection and originality.
Reichle draws inspiration from an eclectic blend of sources, including the legendary Nudie Cohen and the bespoke western wear fashion scene. Furthermore, she delves into the world of old-school American tattoos for additional inspiration and counts her eccentric Austin-based friends as a wellspring of creative energy. She explores time and memory in her work, creating a nostalgic yet contemporary reflection of Texan life. Her embroidery is a testament to her integrity, attention to detail, and the love she pours into each piece.
