Judi MacLeod, a fibre artist from Victoria, has spent most of her life working with fibre. When she was exposed to experimental fibre work by Jan Beaney and Jean Littlejohn that changed the entire focus of her work. MacLeod has been juried into many Fine Art Shows locally and nationally. She is a member of Fibre Arts Network, Studio Art Quilt Assoc and the Surface Design Assoc., and participates in their shows nationally and internationally.
Statement. I am energized by vibrant colours and textures which are evident in my many hangings, wearable art clothes and accessories. Colour delights me, colour makes me happy. Each piece is unique and original, mostly influenced by nature and my travels. These fibre art works may be made from constructed fabric, hand dyed and painted fabric, handmade paper, silkpaper, leather and metal. I enjoy hand dying and experimenting with dyes on fabrics.
