Balancing hand-knitting with machine-knitting to produce a textile with substance, I 'build' on a knitting machine (varying needle gauges) and with the time saved in the production, I am able to use a variety of hand-finishing techniques to produce a detailed and original piece of work.
Inspired by tribal art as much as contemporary culture, I fuse elements of both in my work.
I started designing/producing my first pieces of (Women's) clothing in 1986 (KULT KNITZ) and have diversified into Childrenswear (KIDDIKULT), Art to Wear (CONTEMPORARY HEAD-DRESSES) to the present day - where I produce knitted jewellery, accessories and 'Artefacts' for the home.
I have sold via Chelsea Crafts Fair, Origin, Fortnum & Masons and various independent retail outlets. The Brighton Artist’sOpen House. is a wonderful way of keeping in touch with my great clients in the area, especially now that I have moved to Oxford!
For 2011 I will be introducing new accessories for legs, teapots and armchairs, and of course, heads!
Prices range from £20.00 to £200.
