I use fabric as an expression of colourful identity.
Ragments start with discarded garments which I cut up and recompose by stitching, patching, printing, and sewing them back into wearable items. These pieces of clothing are unique and sustainable, and allow for the expression of identity through dress. The colours, shapes, patterns and stories only ever really come to life on their new owner!
Over the years another line of work has evolved from my Ragments named On The Wall, following roughly the same principles and techniques: textile hangings. The hangings allow an immersive experience as you can really enter a quiet parallel world, passing through them and appreciating the different layers.
