Sally Baldwin - UK
“Sally is a textile artist based in Mid Devon in SW England. She makes two and three dimensional installation, wall and sculptural pieces using stitch, moulding, and collage techniques. Her favoured material are papers of all kinds, including handmade, and silk and silk fibres.
Her interest in botanical forms influenced her early work but more recently she has been looking at notions of fragility, both of our ecosystems and of the species that inhabit them, including ourselves. Her constructed textile pieces are often lace like and ephemeral, and she uses stitched and deconstructed paper to create contemporary lace which also appears fragile and delicate.
Her early career was in Fashion, running a small business making silk lingerie and nightwear, and she later moved into teaching in Further and Higher Education. She now focuses entirely on her own work, exhibiting both at home and internationally.”
