New work!

Hello! Yes, it's been ages. The silly season has taken over here. There are many new 
projects on the go, but as yet none have been finished. Just so you know I am still on the job 
I thought I'd post a new work – still very much a work in progress – called Urban Planning.



This is a very personal project for me. I started with some painting and over-printing, playing 
with making marks. Then I over-printed a map of where we used to live in London and began 
sewing a random hexagon grid pattern as the next layer.



From there the layers of fabric, silk and lace have been steadily building up. I'm trying not to 
plan this part too slavishly... I want it to be the chaotic growth of a city that happens no matter 
how assiduously one plans its grid ;)



Anyway, still a work in progress. Here's to one day actually finishing! ;)

Artist Crush: Ari Athans









Ari is very well known in Brisbane for her breathtaking jewellery, but she is also an
amazing artist. Her most recent exhibition, Rockheads, is on from the 30th July till 17th 
August... I LOVE it! Have a peek online here, or if you're in Brisbane, you can see them 
in person here. This is not an ad - it's a true artist crush :)
