Iris Bishop is an artist and designer with an innovative approach to textile design, combining weaving, knitting, knotting and other ‘sculptural’ techniques. She loves to incorporate new, vintage and re- cycled materials into her work, making every garment and accessory a unique ‘piece’. The Horsham Artists exhibitions present a wonderful opportunity to show seasonal collections of ‘one-off’ studio designs and experimental pieces, alongside her more classic range of garments.
Drawings and mixed-media pieces form an integral part of her design identity and include decorative framed pieces, plus an exquisitely detailed range of digitally-printed silk scarves. These printed designs combine elements from her drawings, paintings, photographs and imagery of her 3-D textile work. Their colour and image quality is exceptional, each item being individually printed and hand-finished. Commissions for individual garments are always welcome – each piece being customised to fit and suit clients in terms of style, size and colour, using high quality materials and with a professional finish.
