Jane Hunter

I live in the beautiful borderlands of Shropshire and Wales and my work reflects the natural environment both in colour and texture through printing and dyeing fabrics. I use these fabrics to create a range of garments and accessories. Eco-printing is one of the methods that I really enjoy using as it can give amazing prints with lots of detail and releases a wonderful range of surprising colours from foliage and flowers. I use materials found in the landscape and my garden then dyeing outdoors keeping a close connection with the natural world. An important part of my work is to reuse and upcycle garments and fabrics giving them a second life and making my practice gentle on the environment. I enjoy passing on skills and knowledge through courses and workshops.
