Meet Evelyn...
A unique one of a kind antique style textile art sculpture, this piece is made using my own hand drawn pattern, then created completely from antique and vintage materials from my collections.
I started with vintage embroidered linens, creating lots of layers using more vintage and antique embroidered panels, laces, ephemera and haberdashery pieces.
The tail and mane are created using nettle fibres, the head of the tail was created using part of a wooden shoe last which I then gold leafed.
I added an antique embellishment around the neck, a textile bow, beaded, glittering details, vintage buttons and an old pottery pipe bowl...a mudlarking find,
She has lots of hand stitching and painted details as well as appliqued fabric details.
I hand stained, dyed and spritzed all the fabrics to give the piece a worn, pre loved feel as I like all my art to have their unique characters.
Designed by Lauren
