In this exhibition I build on the weaving and knotting methods devised during an artist residency at the Edinburgh College of Art in 2006 to further explore rhythms and tensions in materials. The fold is a central method that transforms paper strips into wearable forms with the knot necklaces signalling a momentary departure from combinations with metal. Brooches and pendants continue to integrate paper and metal in the one form with, in some cases, the introduction of vitreous enamel to enhance colour contrasts.
