Claire Cawte

Cardiff

Claire specialises in the creation of 'one-off' items that may be worn on the body or displayed as art pieces for the interior. She creates wall hangings, scarves, wraps, throws and cushions, always maintaining particular consideration for warmth, luxury and, ultimately, comfort. She uses only plant dyes and natural fibres. Her technique and style have developed into a Nuno-felt process. It is the tactile nature of her work which is probably the most important - a reflection of the intimate nature of personal contact with the materials and the exploration of fibres during the making process.
