biography
Biography - BA (Hons) Costume with Performance Design, Arts University Bournemouth
Clemency Calkin is an artist who works predominantly with textiles, creating patchwork paintings that combine traditional sewing techniques with bright colour palettes. Her works are a celebration of the many possibilities of cloth, elevating what has often been seen as a ‘domestic craft’ into fine art.
Through her creative process of translating feelings into colours and uncertainties into patterns, Clemency is able to process her experience of a complex world. She hopes to create tactile art that brings joy - to the viewer as well as the space it sits in.
