About The Artwork

My works address social justice and this small sculpture refers to the thousands of migrants around the world who seek refuge in other countries. Some have been on ships, boats and have lost their lives. The work in this image is fabric based using folds, edges and wood (Land) to create the piece. I obtained my art degree several decades ago in textiles with embroidery as the main discipline. I am proud to work in this medium and have been for several years giving it a Fine Art approach. This form of Art was frowned upon in the 60s and is only beginning to get the recognition it deserves. Women were not considered "Artists" when working in this medium, it was different for men!

1944.Nairobi,Kenya. Most of my life has been spent in the UK and USA where I was also educated and have made my home. Travel has played an important part of my life and work. The work is influenced by place, time and memory. The artwork is textile based in which stitchery,collage and stitch is used in conjunction with digital photography. Recent work is in collaboration with a Poet in which the text is layered with stitch to add density of surface. These works are executed on handmade felt.
