About Agnis Smallwood

Designer Maker Researcher Educator - Luxury hand woven textiles from Agnis Smallwood

Hello!

My name is Agnis Smallwood, I am a Designer Maker Researcher Educator and I live and work from my home in Leeds, Yorkshire.

I specialise in hand woven textiles. I love the infinite possibilities that present themselves when weaving. Selecting different coloured and textured yarns and combining them in the warp and weft in different ways.

I have two looms, a small 4 shaft wooden table loom as well as a large metal framed loom which sits on the floor called a dobby loom.

My work is inspired by my natural surroundings. For many years I have been inspired by those plants and grasses that grow naturally at the side of the road, or between the cracks in pavements, without human intervention often over-looked and forgotten. I use the colours and forms found here as the starting point for many pieces of my work.

In 2020 the world changed dramatically for everyone. I no longer spent time travelling to deliver workshops across the county, where I would take little detours and take pictures along the way! Instead I immersed myself into my garden. I dug and weeded and created some vegetable beds. I sowed seeds and watched them with intense fascination as they grew slowly each day. It would provide me with escapism from the challenges of the world around me. I think it was inevitable really looking back that this would filter into my work and grow into a new collection of work, around fruit and vegetables. Taking inspiration once again from the intense and beautiful colours that can be found within nature.

I have been self-employed since setting up my business in 2009 after graduating from Cumbria Institute of the Arts with a BA in Contemporary Applied Arts. I have since continued to develop my skills and graduated with an MA in Artist Teachers and Contemporary Practices in 2017 from Goldsmiths, University of London.

Thanks for visiting my shop!
