Got the BLUES with Emily WAINWRIGHT
Emily WAINWRIGHT : « By exploring the potential of stacking, repeating and joining ‘ready-made’ multiples, I have created a collection of tactile textiles samples which push the boundaries between fashion and textiles art. »
Creative Student Award 2012 at School of the Arts, Loughborough University (UK) : Emily graduated with First Class Honours in (BA Hons) Multimedia Textiles, at Loughborough University School of the Arts in 2012.
By exploring the potential of stacking, repeating and joining ‘ready-made’ multiples, such as cable ties and curtain hooks to create collections of striking, interactive and large-scale body adornment pieces which merge the boundaries between fashion and installation art; Emily manipulates ordinary, non-textiles materials and objects to create extraordinary aesthetics. She strives to adapt, reinvent and up-cycle non-textiles materials and transforms them into sculptural mixed media textiles. Emily’s work is lead by materials and process as the three dimensional forms are developed through experimentation, mistakes and the exploration of juxtaposing materials, surfaces and techniques. Emily hopes to continue experimenting with combining new and old textiles processes as well as introducing unexpected objects and materials to create exciting, tactile and interactive pieces. She enjoys creating new forms and surfaces whether it be for the Fashion industry, the Interiors market or for a Textiles-Art purpose.
