The nine artists:
Amanda Warren - is a teacher and textile artist
Anni Howard - is a knitwear designer and conceptual artist
Ellen Devall - is a textile artist and writer, using the pen or needle to tell stories in cloth, stitch and paper
Julie Howe - is a painter, print-maker, doll maker and papier mache artist
Juliet Lockhart - is a sculptor, installation artist and puppet maker
Lorna Rand - is a textile artist
Stephanie Moss - is a teacher and textile artist
TabathaMitchel-Simons - is a textile artist
Paula MacGregor - is a mixed media artist working in Assemblage and BookWorks
Paula is the artist that initiated the idea of this collaborative project, the working title of which was 'Heirloom Box'.
Being fascinated by the fact that when a group of artists work on exactly the same brief, they all produce very different work, Paula decided to set her own brief and enjoy the consequences of the results.
Getting a group of nine female artists was obviously the first task, it took a few months of meeting up for preliminary chats before a suitable group was formed and settled down to the task in hand.
