My name is Emily and I am a self-taught textile sculpture artist based in Yorkshire, UK. I discovered sewing in 2018 and haven't been able to put my needle and thread down since. My artistic repertoire encompasses a blend of fabrics, faux fur, threads, clay, and wool, woven together through techniques like embroidery, beading, and needle felting.

 

My textile sculptures are a testament to my enduring love for wildlife. Having grown up surrounded by the tranquil beauty of the countryside, I developed a profound connection to nature, which serves as a cornerstone of my artistic inspiration. Ranging from delicate moths and industrious bees to cunning foxes and elusive badgers, each piece is imbued with intricate detail and infused with a touch of magic.

 

Through my work, I strive to weave enchanting narratives that transport you to a world where reality and make-believe intertwine seamlessly, leaving you spellbound by the beauty of the wild. Drawing on my love of animals, my work aims to unveil the often-overlooked intricacies of nature, fostering in onlookers a newfound reverence for the creatures we cohabit this planet with.
