Here's my next instalment of favourite textile/fashion artist.
Femke Agema, creates amazing wearable forms which I cant get enough of. I love the originality, craftsmanship, and fantastical ideas behind her work, all done with such wonderful humour and playfulness.
Elders
Is a vision of the world springing into life after winter. It’s inspired by the simple joy we feel in being let loose into the wild to play in an environment overflowing with possibilities. A world where you make treehouses, huts and rafts from whatever you can get your hands on. A world made to be explored, bursting with colours and textures, where the only limit is your imagination.
Created for the inevitable snowpocalypse, the Nigliktok collection, takes its name from the Inuit word for 'cold.' Nigliktok is Femke's vision of a world frozen over, a world where ice and snow dominate, but her signature colourful and playful aesthetic can still illuminate the landscape.
Femke can also be found on Facebook
Continuing on with magnificent creature creation, I thought I should include a picture of Artist Nick Caves soundsuit. Nina van der Voorn's Kingdom of Klah, and The Klah Gazette for her equally wonderful imagination. And to conclude Charles Freger, check out the article written in the Guardian Savage, beautiful and surviving.
