‘Digital Craft’
Melanie Bowles explores the new frontiers of digital design and print, developing a new craft medium. Her process replaces traditional craft techniques, such as the embroiders needle, with new technologies whilst retaining the beauty and quality of hand crafted design. Working with the digital stylus she exploits the versatility of the vector program Adobe Illustrator to build up flowing forms, intricate blends and rich colours to create her sophisticated designs. These are printed on to luxury silk satin and made into a collection of silk scarves.
Melanie is will be exhibiting this collection at ‘Origins’ The London Craft Fair, Somerset House, London 2nd – 7th October
