Ewa Exley

 

I often work with hand made felt as I enjoy the versatility of this medium.  Also the primitive nature of this type of textile forms links with feltmakers of past generations, and a sense of past time is a recurring idea in my work, as is a fascination with animal forms - both for their elegance, and the symbolic power they have acquired over thousands of years.
