Tilly is a Fine Art and Textiles Graduate from Moray School of Art, based in Elgin. Influenced by her family’s history with textiles, she explores texture, opacity, and sustainability in her work, often repurposing worn fabrics to highlight their history and value. Inspired by Kintsugi, she embraces imperfection, layering and encasing fabric remnants to examine themes of concealment, memory and identity.
