I am a textile artist based in Donegal and London. My heritage inspires my work, growing up with both Iraqi and Irish influences. My work is rooted in Irish folktales, translated into narrative illustrations that evoke feelings of enchantment. Sustainability underpins my practice; I work exclusively with reclaimed materials- moth eaten Irish linen, beach combed fisherman rope, charity shop jewels and beads- giving discarded textiles a second life as storytelling objects. I am inspired by the tradition of the SeanchaΓ­ and like to create drawings alongside hand embroidered puppets/textiles. With these two elements, people can share stories as if they were the SeanchaΓ­ themselves, a homage to Irish folk tradition.

    We saw your beautiful rendering of the story of Suffragette Rose Lamartine Yates (which is still being exhibited at The Norman Plaistow Gallery, Wimbledon Village Club until this Sunday) and were blown over both by the magic it created and the very fine skills on display.

    We also had a good chat about how inspirational you found the work of the late, great story teller Paula Rego

    Thank you
