Arts Thread

I am a woven textile designer who specialises in traditional processes and techniques that allow me to keep sustainability at the core of my designs. I use all natural materials that have either been sourced locally, grown myself or found and foraged. Processes have explored include - yarn spinning, natural dyeing and basketry. These processes allow me to keep circularity a main focus throughout my projects and fabrics I have produced. I love to learn new skills and researching about traditional craft that use natural materials you can find anywhere is what makes my practice so exciting and enjoyable. I get all my inspiration from hiking and foraging in nature and appreciating the beauty of the plants and forms all around. I design for interiors with the idea of bringing more nature and natural materials into the home to reconnect with the land and to promote the benefits that these materials can have for us compared to synthetic. My work serves as a celebration of nature.
