Beautiful, diverse and inspiring paper work by Jennifer Collier
"My practice focuses on creating work from paper; by bonding, waxing,
trapping and stitching I produce unusual paper ‘fabrics’, which are used
to explore the ‘remaking’ of household objects.
The papers are treated as if cloth, with the main technique employed
being stitch; a contemporary twist on traditional textiles.
The papers themselves serve as both the inspiration and the media for my
work, with the narrative of the books and papers suggesting the forms.
I tend to find items then investigate a way in which they can be reused
and transformed; giving new life to things that would otherwise go
unloved or be thrown away."
