This attractive screen has a valuable purpose since it is sound
absorbing, made from moulded fibre felt. It can be fixed onto walls and
ceilings or used as a room divider, making it a useful aesthetic to quieten an
area during group meetings and tutorials while other students are working
around. The screen is built from hexagon
shapes which come in a variety of designs and colours and can be freely combined
to personalise the outcome.

A traditional textile craft is re-interpreted in an
unconventional medium: Catherine combines glass fibre strands, made from
recycled glass, to make a flexible yarn. These are then crocheted into a doily
pattern using old designs inherited from her grandmother, and fired in a kiln
to fuse the fibre. I love how elements from the past have been brought into
modern day design, as in my own work old books and patterns have been used to
create contemporary interiors.

These patterns really remind me of your work, they look effective with the glass background... perhaps you could photograph your work in front of a window.
