Found Materials

Textile artists are endlessly resourceful. If they can’t access their regular materials, they will head out into their backyard and find them. Natalie Ciccoricco has created a series of simple yet striking works using little more than twigs.

Using an object that most of us would just step over or ignore, Natalie has found a fine balance between nature and human creation. The organic beauty of the twigs is set off by the geometric precision of the stitching.

As well as inspiration being all around, materials are everywhere too. Beautiful art can emerge from the simple objects beneath your feet.
