Sarah Stewart, Designer & Printmaker

Primarily working with silk screen and relief printing processes, my work is inspired by patterns and typography found within my environment and found objects. It embraces the past, thrown away and pre-loved and seeks to create something fresh and contemporary from these. I apply my designs across a variety of textile and book forms.

With a growing concern for environmental ethics, I use environmentally friendly materials and packaging where possible.

Environmental Ethics

Over the past few years my awareness of my carbon footprint as an artist has grown. This has led me to make changes to my printmaking practice.

My studio remains as chemical free as possible using primarily waterbased systems and soil association approved inks. All papers used in my studio are acid free and my notebooks are bound by hand using luxuriously smooth recycled papers. My textile based pieces use linens manufactured in Scotland and are printed and sewn in my home studio.

Where possible I reuse packaging and ensure any bought packaging is compostable and/or fully recyclable.

These changes to my practice have been made sensitively to enhance the quality of my work and presentation.

Charity

10% of all sales are donated to charity. My chosen charities include Shelter, Women's Aid and Comfort International.
