Welcome
to embroidery 2004
The
students represented on this web site have all completed the BA (Hons)
Degree in Embroidery at the Manchester Metropolitan University –
a unique course, producing unique students, with both specialist knowledge
and transferable skills.
Work produced this year is, as always, amazingly diverse, including
machine stitched wall papers; painstakingly deconstructed books; large
scale fabric sculptures; Arran knitted pieces constructed from rope;
surreal uncanny assemblages made from discarded toys; video installations;
intricately made and embellished accessories and products for interiors
as well as garments and large and small scale wall pieces. Underpinning
all the work is an innate love of the seductive and tactile qualities
of thread and cloth. more info
