In my work I am driven by the tactile elements of textiles, showing the exploration of fabric manipulation through embellishment and stitch using the Juki/Irish machine. I am interested in creating large-scale contemporary pieces that acknowledge historic embroidery practices, reviving them to produce contemporary abstract embroideries, combed with print and digital laser techniques and different methods of dye, including using natural dyestuffs. My most recent work is titled ‘Mapping Archives’, looking at ‘creases’ carrier in cloth to show how these abstract shapes, that map the history and journey of the fabric through time. Taking these creases as a starting point I embroider over these natural patterns of time, creating embellished fabrics for interiors that resemble maps and show the terrain of the fabric. I enjoy creating meticulous pieces of work that highlight my attention to detail through stitch, I see these pieces in interior settings.Now I have graduated I am wanting to work in industry in a creative position, working as, and with artists and designers, in fashion, interiors and product design. These are the areas that interest me, and is what I would like more experience in.
