Lynsey Calder

• Textile Designer


Lynsey Calder is a Printed Textile Designer who combines traditional materials and textiles practices with novel applications. Her areas of interests are rooted in printed pattern with traditional yet innovative materials where slow hand skills and meditative repetition of movements are combined to produce usable textiles pieces. She is interested in the positive effect colour and textures can have in our everyday lives. Her current work 'Long Division' is influenced by a recent trip to Japan where she studied katazome, shibori and indigo dyeing. 'Noren', a traditional door curtain has been portrayed here as a gateway between worlds..
