 I studied a BA textiles for fashion and interiors at Bath Spa University and have recently graduated. By using different materials and fabrics, I experiment with surface and texture. I take inspiration from different surfaces which are eroding, peeling, damaged and layered. I use photography and different Medias to show my interpretation of the image taken. I especially enjoy working from cracked graffiti and derelict buildings.
