EMMA BRADBURY
I saw Emma’s work in the latest Grand Design magazine issue, and fall for the colorful hand knitted tea pot cozy. She also makes beautiful scarfs and globes. Visit her etsy shop for more details.
‘I work with natural fibres such as lambs wool, silk, yak and alpaca to create a colourful range of machine and hand knitted accessories such as large wrap around shawls, embroidered hand warmers and tea cosies. The patterns and colours of my work have a nostalgic and domestic narrative which draw influences from Eastern European national costumes, Bohemia, craft and artists such as Matisse and Vanessa Bell.

Tagging Tate 2007, Tate Britain, London
A two-day exploration of sugar, slogans and tagging. Participants in these workshops were given an opportunity to debate themes around the 1807–2007 commemoration of the Act abolishing slavery and look at the politically-charged work of Mark Wallinger. To conclude the workshops, the walls of the Duveen galleries and entrance to Tate Britain were tagged using sugar as a medium.
