Kim Winter

 

of Flextiles is a textile artist specialising in wet felting, indigo shibori and ecoprinting. Her work is inspired by the natural world, and she often incorporates found objects in her pieces. Her hatred of waste and interest in sustainability led her to start upcycling, creating one-off pieces by buying items from charity shops and overdyeing or overprinting them or using them in her felt making.

 

Kim has studied with specialist felters and dyers who are leaders in the field, including Lisa Klakulak, Andrea Graham, Liz Clay, Maria Friese and Irit Dulman.

 

Kim is a member of South London Women Artists and the International Feltmakers Association. She is also a director of Makerhood, a co-operative of artists and designer-makers based in Lambeth, south London.
