THE STORY OVERVIEW
collaborating with artisans, learning about traditional costume and sustaina
ble techniques, and allowing this to inspire co-collaborative creations and develop my own creative practice in embroidery, print and quilting and buidling some workshops to share learnings. I'm passionate about sharing skills cross culturally and bringing together tradition and innovation to solve problems and create creative solutions. I want to inspire others to find meaning in and connection through cloth by creating beautiful textiles that hold stories of herritage, identity, origin, earths cycles and friendship - and share these processes.
