Hi, I'm Anna!
Hi, I'm Anna!
I work primarily in textiles producing projects that straddle art, craft and design.
My practice combines traditional methods of production with digital technologies: as a way to encourage and facilitate experimentation within the making process, and to simplify or speed up the production process.
My projects are playful and engaging and I aim to make all of my work immediately accessible to people, using humour and humility to connect with an audience.
I predominately work on my own, but also work as an collective, Blow Your Own Trumpet, previously known as MMM (Monthly Making Mondays).
