Well-Being
The ‘Well-Being’ series explores the question: 'What does wellbeing feel like in our environment?'
By spending intentional time in the ancient woodlands around her home, Saskia used the regular practice of ‘forest-bathing’ to reconnect with her senses.
Using natural materials, a subtle palette, swathes of delicate yarns and ethereal woven structures, Saskia then sensitively interpreted the delicate balance of personal and environmental wellbeing.
