Graham Hollicks’ textiles use the age-old skill of rug hooking, his imagery draws on multiple inspirations from street art to ritualistic masks, to found graphics and landscapes, often leading the viewer to reflect on the human condition. They are made entirely using materials converted from used garments and textiles.
Textiles Artist.
Graham graduated from Winchester School of Art with a degree in textiles and fashion in 1988, around 30 years later he took up the age-old art of rug hooking and since the first COVID lockdown down this has become his obsession.
All Grahams’ pieces are created using entirely reused materials from strips of textiles cut from used clothing to the backings made by repurposing coffee sacks.
