About the Artist

Shellie Holden is a professional artist and maker specialising in the production of constructed, stitched, collaged and cut paper ‘textiles’.

 

The work range includes:
Wall pieces and instillations
Altered books
Contemporary paper jewellery

 

Her working methodology involves reclaiming materials, such as books, pieces of text and old maps, as well as fabrics, threads and sewing paraphernalia that both inform and become embodied in the work in some visual way. 

 

She says "a conventional reading is dismantled by the intervention of the hand drawn or hand made mark. It is this desire to charge new energy into the objects or artefacts that I find most compelling, and which enables me to impose some sense or authorship onto the work’.
