Welcome to BlckBts: Where Fashion, Art, and Mysticism Converge

Pronounced "black boots," BlckBts is more than a clothing line; it’s a transformative journey. I am Shannah Warwick, the designer, craftswoman, and artist behind BlckBts. Dedicated to those who tread the witchier path, my creations celebrate enchantment, individuality, and connection to the unseen, all while complementing your favorite black boots.

Artistry Beyond Boundaries

BlckBts specializes in flowing, one-of-a-kind designs that embrace diverse body types and encourage self-expression. My approach combines innovative techniques like nuno felting, hand-dyeing, and fabric manipulation to create wearable art. Working from my studio in the serene woodlands of Upstate NY, I handcraft pieces that embody nature’s essence and harness the energy of the moon’s phases, plant magic, and celestial alignments.

This philosophy extends to my installation work, where I explore the boundaries between physical and spiritual realms. My latest large-scale fiber art installation, Lazarus, reflects my theory that the soul resides within the human fascia. Exhibited at 171 Cedar Arts as part of my solo show Veneration: Making the Non-Physical, Physical, the piece invites viewers to consider the connection between the tangible and intangible. This project epitomizes my dedication to merging artistic craftsmanship with deeply contemplative themes.

A Commitment to Innovation and Collaboration

Whether designing limited-edition wearable art or creating immersive installations, I continuously push the boundaries of my craft. My pieces have graced prestigious venues, including juried events, gallery exhibitions, and boutiques like Joan Shepp and Toile in Philadelphia. Through collaborations with curators, sound engineers, and textile experts, I bring my vision to life in unexpected and powerful ways.

Energy Healing and Spiritual Insight

In addition to my creative pursuits, I offer Clairvoyant Readings and Energetic Healing sessions, drawing on a deeply intuitive practice developed through years of meditation and spiritual growth. These sessions integrate seamlessly with my artistic practice, imbuing every creation with intention and meaning.
