"Finding the Magic" - a talk by Annette Emms, Friday 6th March

Annette is a textile artist, living and working in the beautiful Vale of Evesham.  From being a child, she has played with fabric, thread and stories.  Her work combines this with a fascination for the natural world, old churches, history and local legends.


As Annette explores the countryside around her, she loves to weave stories around her work, re-discovering the many legends and secret places full of magic and mystery.  She aims to build layers of fabric and stitch which form interesting textures.  These are then used to create dimensional pieces through which she hopes the observer can glimpse 'a little Magic'.



Inspiration and forgotten stories can appear in the most unexpected places.  Annette likes to think that there is 'magic' everywhere - we just have to look!
