PRINTING ON FELT INSPIRED BY THE HIDDEN GARDENS OF LICHENS
PHOTOGRAPHY THE 2 IMAGES ARE TAKEN AT HIGH RESOLUTION OF FUNGUS ON A GATE AND THEY APPEARED TO BE GROWING AND FLOWERING IN FRONT OF MY EYES .
It is a hidden world a hidden garden. This inspired a hidden imagery blurred into the felt and then the sharp image applied on top.

Then the Rains Came
Taking inspiration from how the landscape changed within minutes as water flowed down the ravines and cracks in the steep hillsides throwing up huge crescendo’s of foam toppped water racing along as if every second counted to reach the river.

FORM The form of women and the part they play in society is echoed in this jacket and the maze within which women live trying always to be out of one part and into another .
