Crafts CouncilDirectoryFiona PitkinTextile ArtistLondon, EnglandTextilesWebsiteE-mailInstagramAboutInfoSustainabilityMy work is primarily concerned with the innovative use of colour and form and how they work together on various fabrics. Abstract collages are layered hand-painted pieces of silk and velvet collected over years, while velvet cushions and scarves are simply painted in soft, subtle shades. Inspired by abstract expressionist artists like Rothko, Sonia Delaunay and Klee’s colour theory, I experiment with texture and detail, giving velvet new life as both art and homeware.Focus:Collages, Textile pieces, Homewares and AccessoriesCommissions:Available for commissionsSustainability is central to my practice. I reuse hand-painted silk and velvet remnants in my collages to minimise waste and celebrate each fabric’s unique history. My hand-painted cushions are mainly made to order, reducing surplus and making thoughtful use of materials. Each piece reflects a slow-made approach that values craftsmanship, care, and environmental responsibility.AboutMy work is primarily concerned with the innovative use of colour and form and how they work together on various fabrics.
