New Artwork

Inspiration for this tapestry came from my move to New Zealand, and the overwhelming feeling of 'being lost' in a strange environment where your main challenge is to build a life from scratch. Fittingly, the theme has been combined with the Maori 'Moko', signifying a milestone in a Maori boy's life. This woollen tapestry was woven with a jacquard loom to enable the weaving of its free-flowing art and is a single / unique piece of textile art. The artwork is a contemporary, Maori-inspired creation (as supposed to original Maori art) and has been approved by the independent Maori committee associated with the Intellectual Property Office for New Zealand (IPONZ). This is also the organisation where this tapestry's design has been registered - making copying, falsifying or reproducing illegal. The tapestry will be delivered with invisible hanging loops at the top ends or wooden rods as depicted. The Artful Sheep brings together wool and art. The quality and versatile character of wool goes beyond your imagination. I honestly feel the world of fabrics (fashion, interiors...) is far too dominated by synthetic fibres. These are detrimental to the beautiful world we live in. Since moving to New Zealand, I have gone on a wool journey: I read every book and spoke to every industry expert about this fibre. I created the Artful Sheep as I felt such a premium fibre deserves a premium destination: art.
