New show alert: Stewart Francis Easton’s work fuses together hand embroidery, sonic art and music. His aim is to break the traditional boundaries between craft and art.
​
Beginning with folk song, story and social history, Easton allows the weight of story to be emphasized by the time taken in the laborious embroidery process. In creating his large scale wall based pieces Stewart shows his connection with the story and models a slowing down and immersion in the moment.
​
His rough hewn paintings extend this expansion of awareness as mysterious events happen in wilderness environments.
Stewart Francis Easton lives and works in London, UK.

Easton has had a number of solo/ group shows both in the UK and USA. He is collected internationally.

“Laura Cooper is acutely interested in and inspired by forms that occur in the natural world. Recurring throughout her work are drawn, sculpted, painted, crocheted and sewn articulations that emulate and elaborate the natural structures of found organic forms – mutable growth patterns; neural pathways; the muscular tactility of dirt, stone and branches; delicate webs and filigree; the pulse and glide of the ocean; earthly apparitions; and exquisite formations sculpted by wind or water.“
