Holly hallawell

Holly Hallawell (b.2001) is a textile artist based in London. Her practice centres on weaving, using the loom as her canvas. She draws inspiration from natural forms, such as sprawling roots and rock strata, and reinterprets them into abstract, textural surfaces, highlighting often-overlooked details in our surroundings. She builds her work thread by thread, creating fluid and diaphanous pieces. By taking her work outside, the wind and sun can play across the surface, casting shifting shadows and emulating a sense of aliveness. The process of weaving is slow yet rhythmic, echoing the pulses of nature and providing a space for stillness; it is both a meditation and her method.
