Studio
3rd year student
Isobelle Ancient
One of the many quirky,fascinating animals Isobelle Ancient made so carefully for her end of year show.The jointed figures featured beautifully worked textile techniques such as smocking and embroidery.
The finished pieces were carefully displayed in made boxes and on shelves.They looked delightful.
Jake Chappel-Kelly
Jake’s preparatory drawings and trial prints.Using nature as his inspiration Jake took his research into furnishing for interiors, creating textiles for fabrics and products.
Landscape on to cardboard
These beautiful images of everyday landscape were recorded by Sophie -Anne O’Connell onto found card.Each image explores a different aspect of what could be termed as conventional scenes and each from a unique view point or perspective.
Sophie developed these ideas further by translating the imagery and retaining the colour palette into flowing printed scarves and shawls.

Here in the Textile Dept our skills are broad and experimental. We feel able to cross the boundaries and embrace other disciplines.Here is a good example of textile techniques crossing over into jewellery.
