Crochet Chair, Imogen Luddy
Vintage school chair, acrylic seat and hand crochet
My textile practice spans wallpapers, fabrics, surfaces and desirable products for interior environments. Working across a wide range of media, including laser-cutting, embroidery, crochet and ceramics, I seek to find new and innovative ways of exploring traditional crafts.
Using antique lace, doilies and embroidered samplers as a starting point, the aim of my final collection is to subvert these traditional practices by ‘digitising’ their structures and reproducing them in unexpected materials.
