My work explores the relationship between lace and Breton’s cultural history through a contemporary fine art lens. I work across mediums, including Lino printing, watercolour and acrylic paint medium, to create large works on recycled fabrics. The heritage of Breton is bound to lace production; folklore and traditions of Breton’s people are intricately woven into the fine detail of the fabric. I aim to bring Breton’s forgotten history to light through my practice.
