Bridget Bowie
Media or specialism: Textiles, print and installation.
Bridget's practice is largely an emotional response to an environment, situation, place or space. She works with various materials and techniques, often using printing methods on a base of cloth or paper and combining this with stitch, collage and the manipulation, piecing and embellishment of surfaces. Often the print plates will contain stitch and fabric. Each piece is individual and may develop as an installation piece or works for the wall.
During the MA, her practice centred on dealing with loss and this is always a thread through the work. Cutting away, removing and rearranging surfaces to "process the void". The outcomes are not morbid or maudlin, but rather contemplative and uplifting and often with a monochrome or very limited colour palette.
After working in Art education initially, she now exhibits across the UK and has enjoyed running workshops for many years for all ages, both from her home studio and various venues around the country.
If you are interested in doing a workshop at the studio or a Venue of your choice or would just like to book her for a talk, she can be contacted at the address below.
