MAGGIE BARBER
My current work evolves from my love of ancient calligraphy and texts from which I am developing my own stitched language. This is an ongoing exploration involving both machine and hand stitching.
My roots are in traditional quilt making. Stitch and colour have always been my passion. Dyeing and printing on natural fibres, particularly silks and cottons create a base on which to explore and incorporate complex stitched marks. My work is intended to draw the viewer in to examine the minute detail of the stitch.
