Carol Baker
Carol is a mixed media textile artist who studied stitched textiles at the Isle of Man college, after which she embarked on a textiles distance degree with the Open College of the Arts which she finished in March 2021. She works predominantly in 3D but also occasionally in 2D, finding much of her inspiration from family history. Carol tends to use a mixture of textile techniques such as free motion machine embroidery, hand stitching, applique and felt making in juxtaposition with other methods that are further off the textile radar such as Papier-Mache. Continuing work inspired by family she has recently collaborated with her grandson, interpreting his artwork and making figurative sculptures that consist of Papier-Mache heads and soft bodies. |
