Sharon Kearley

Salisbury, UK

Sharon is a textile Artist based on the Hampshire/Wiltshire border. Her work investigates the potential of the emotional, physical and hidden line within the landscape, perceiving the linear as a ‘connector’ of people, place and time.  Researching archive maps, forgotten paths and the rhythm of walking, she investigates qualities of trace and fluidity through a playful and innovative approach to weave, drawing on ephemeral, spatial qualities and narrative to produce artworks for installation and exhibition.

She has worked nationally and internationally as a Woven Textiles Artist and an experienced Lecturer, sharing her skills through exhibiting, discourse, writing, teaching and mentoring.   Sharon is a firm believer in dual professionalism, where education, community and making are deeply intertwined.
