Priya Anand

b. 1984, Chennai

Lives and works in Bristol

Woven and knotted wall pieces built slowly on a floor loom, from cotton and wool dyed with plants from her allotment.

Priya Anand weaves on a floor loom she rebuilt from parts, using cotton and wool dyed with madder, weld and indigo she grows on an allotment in Easton. A large piece can take her four months.

Her work sits between craft and painting and refuses to choose. She has shown at the Crafts Council and the Arnolfini and teaches weaving at Bath Spa University.
