Venue 12 - 70 Linden Road
Jane is a textile artist and designer. This year her designs are based around 'ships and boats' and her late Grandfather’s profession, an Inspector of Shipwrights, at the beginning of the 1900s. She has also recorded the lives of her other Grandparents through fabric and paper.
The other processes Jane uses are wire and metalwork, machine knitting, hand stitching and printing. She explores ways to encapsulate these ideas into textiles pieces. In 2007 Jane graduated with a BA (Hons) degree in Fashion/Textiles from the University of the West of England. She now specialises in designer knitwear, printing and textiles. Jane records her ideas and inspirations into sketch and cloth books, which helps the development of her work. |
