Bio:
Designer, maker and facilitator with over 20 years experience of professional and community practice. Originally trained in Theatre Design but through my community arts practice, my interest in fibre art grew and a desire to develop personal artwork. Member of Prism Contemporary Textiles Collective, Society for Embroidered Work, Precious Collective and Society of British Theatre Design.
Artist statement:
Through three-dimensional textiles and photography, I investigate how things change appearance & shape over time, not just eroding or decaying but also new layers of growth, giving interesting juxtapositions of structure and colour. I document and respond to the changes I see in the world around me and make work using old clothes and scrap materials for both economic & ecological sustainability. Recent sculptural work highlights the issue of plastic pollution and climate change.
