Judith Rowley

Wolverhampton, West Midlands, U.K

Judith is a textile and mixed media artist, exhibitor and teacher whose work explores diverse concepts. It is often Judith’s historical research that informs her contemporary art practice. Her 3D work often incorporates antique artefacts and tells a story – a creative journey through time.

Judith’s work has been seen on exhibition at the following London venues: Mall Galleries, Hoxton Arches Gallery and Glaziers Art Fair. Other venues include: The Royal Dublin Society and Royal Birmingham Society of Artists where Judith has been invited as a guest tutor on a number of occasions.

Judith creates textural and tactile surfaces from natural fabrics and fibres. Derived from her interest in history and historical textiles she often resurrects traditional skills in a contemporary way for example darning and smocking. In order to embellish her surfaces Judith uses hand stitch and machine stitch to add texture and interest.

Judith teaches textile art to adults and often talks to interested groups ranging from Historical Societies to Embroiderers Guilds
