Molly Kent

Molly Kent is a textile artist who represents mental and physical health notions through mediums such as rug tufting and weaving. They portray contemporary existence regarding social media and internet living and how this affects our perception of self. This stems from their personal experiences of their mental health condition CPTSD but also reflects on broader anxieties and fears that have come to their attention due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
