The jewellery and accessory pieces are a functional yet decorative textile artwork which is then presented within a Perspex tile with stitch. My work is often very graphic as I am inspired by line; for example in maps, architecture, handwriting and plans. My artwork is often in monochrome, working with a variety of white, creams and black tones as I feel this brings attention to the detail of the hand stitching that I include. I used traditional quilting techniques in a very contemporary manner. I work on the textiles on both front and back sides, which creates interesting contrasting images and using the Perspex allows the pieces to be double-sided. The tiles come in a variety of sizes squared of 3cm and 5cm in scale and the products I make vary from brooches, earrings, cufflinks, necklaces, rings and magnets. Each item is completely unique as the textile pieces can not be repeated due to the method of machine and hand stitching I work in. Only one or several textile tiles can be used to make the jewellery which allows the piece to form simple shapes and also to become quite sculptural.
Prices range from £20.
