contemporary abstract textile art by uk textile artist Mary-Clare Buckle

Dreaming of Jewellery
framed - 150 x 210cm unframed - 120 x 180cm - Sold

This large wall hanging was originally created as part of a Millenium project, in the village of Abbotsbury (West Dorset), where I live. It was exhibited in the hilltop Chapel of St Catherine, alongside many others.

It again combines gold and silver with some of my (almost!) trademark colours and uses some of the motifs which I used to use in my jewellery designs. The surface has been quilted in gold thread. There is also a tapestry interpretation of this piece, made into a kneeler for the village church, which you can buy as a print.
