OF FIBRE AND LIFE... Bits and pieces of cloth sewn or glued together curtain the world. Bits and pieces of knowledge skillfully intertwined make up the study of history. Every civilization has this tradition of squirreling away precious fragments untill they are needed to create a whole. Works of art,especially in the 20th century are often nothing more than ordered fragmentations- with each fragment carrying it's own cultural load.

My design for the Tiptree Jam Comany was inspired by the history and founder of the business 125 years ago, combined with the homely and traditional feel of the delicious jams they produce. It was a great experience touring the factory with all it's wonderful fruity smells, and interesting to see how it was made. All in all, a good experience and opportunity to work on an outside commission.
