Home Profile Concepts Gallery Info
 

The work explores the theme of transformation and elemental change in the environment.

Fascinated by dramatic, mysterious, transient and wild/forgotten landscapes. The inner beauty of the undiscovered -the material and immaterial. The theme evolves conceptually in each collection, is less influenced by fashion, as by a personal journey.

Own photographs and drawings are the inspiration for the prints. Photographic and abstract images are translated into silk screen prints and digital prints on fabric.

Mixed media textiles, interesting objects to wear, and for installation. Interior hangings and cushions. Interested in deconstruction clothing, fabrics to rework and alter the surface.

Hand dyed, hand printed and by heat application, Felting and stitch. Specialises in one offs and short print runs. Screen-printed garments and fabric products. Handcrafted items.

Style

Simplicity of design. Restricted colour palette. Tonal gradations of colour.

Works with a range of fabrics and textile techniques. Begins with the image and the fabric, which determines the product outcome.
