‘Ismini Fabric’, Interior textile woven with cotton and paper.
"Athens born and London based artist Ismini Samanidou trained at Central Saint Martins and the Royal College of Art specialising in woven textiles. Her practice touches on the boundaries of craft, art and design and involves developing textile works through commissions and interdisciplinary collaborations. Weaving is used as a language to communicate and express ideas through a ‘hands on’ approach integrating digital technologies and craft skills. Ismini has travelled and researched textile techniques worldwide and is interested in the way weaving exists as an autonomous language. Crossing cultural and political boundaries, weaving retains local identity with global connections, articulating narrative, space and history."
