Kristy Bishop (b. 1986) is a fiber artist and educator based in Charleston, South Carolina, with over 13 years of experience working in textiles and teaching throughout the state. Since 2020, she has been a Certified Teaching Artist through the South Carolina Arts Commission, dedicating her practice to sharing fiber techniques with students in both school settings and adult workshops.

Her work has been exhibited across the United States, most recently in a solo exhibition at Park Circle Gallery in North Charleston, SC. Her woven pieces and indigo clay resist works are currently featured at the Renwick Museum store in Washington, D.C.

Her studio practice explores the intersection of traditional and experimental techniques, including rigid heddle, inkle, and tablet weaving, as well as clay resist and indigo dyeing. In recent years, she has focused on incorporating discarded materials into her weaving, creating a dialogue between the slow, intentional nature of handweaving and the accelerating pace of production and waste.
