Ellie is a third year Textile Design student with an interest in craftsmanship and sustainable dyeing, her work is influenced by texture and surfaces.
“By using the ancient Japanese technique of Shibori dyeing coupled with natural dye, I have been exploring how these century old techniques can produce contemporary fabrics for today. The natural and organic changes to surfaces over time through the environment really interests me, therefore I want to reflect this transient nature on to the fabrics that I create.”
