New work emerging

Images:  Sue Ingles

As we emerge from several months of lockdown hibernation, these images of new work in progress from Sue Ingles seem to capture the hazy feeling of returning to real life.

Sue has printed her fabric with an a process known as eco-printing.  It uses direct contact between leaves or other organic matter and cloth in the presence of a fixative.  After a few hours, the colours and patterns become permanent and the delicate tracery of veins and outlines are revealed.  Sue is embellishing her work with stitch and beads to add another dimension to the piece.
