Siobhan Phillips

Artist Siobhan Phillips takes her inspiration from the surrounding environment. She is particularly drawn to areas that have a feeling of isolation, and appear to be forgotten and left to decay. She is concerned how many of these buildings are being used for development, with their past glory no longer of any consequence. She trys to recreate their present natural state before the face lift begins. Siobhan finds beauty in the emptiness of these structures, which she trys to reflect in the way she develops the images and in her choice of materials.Siobhan trained in Manchester.

She has qualifications in both Art and Design and in Design Crafts including a specialist area in Textiles and Embroidery.
