Design
Meeting at SVA - Ideas taking shape and constructions forming! It's all very
exciting! Focus in on the Museum in the Park installation in the plunge
pool and particularly the Preview Evening! Anne Rogers work
for 'Weave' will explore the juxtaposition between weave and non-weave, ie
felt. Incorporating weave into felt and also weaving as part of the
felting process. Jenny Bicat is keen to embrace the water wheel!
We also
had our photographs taken for the STROUD LIFE
which should feature us very soon and give you a flavor of what is to come from
the WEAVE experiment.1st February 2011

Arts Council England, South West Executive Director, Chris Humphrey said:
'We are delighted to be able to support this innovative, unusual and collaborative project involving textiles, fashion and performance. It will bring textiles to new audiences in different venues, enabling public engagement across all age ranges.'
CUT 2 ON FOLD explores the journey from flat pattern to calico toile to finished garment to the wearing of the garment. The installation will be held at The Space in Stroud during the Stroud International Textile Festival from 1-21 May 2009. Enter a mysterious workshop in which stand a silent group of tailor’s dummies clothed in the bare bones of an outfit, each one a world within a world. Visitors will be invited to embellish and add to the installation, slowly bringing it to life. As the installation progresses, the garments and installation will change according to the additions made by visitors, workshop participants, and the Studio Seven textile artists.

I have recently had two pieces of work selected for the Design Shibori, a juried international competition running in conjunction with the 7th International Shibori Symposium in France. The show debuts in Paris, then travels to UK, Japan and USA. The one piece is a large wall panel based on notation and mark making whilst the other is a canvas that has a had an experimental shibori process applied to the surface.
