Arrowsmith, Sue
After studying textiles at Goldsmith's College, London, Sue Arrowsmith began making three-dimensional pieces using materials such as Lycra and thread. Her interest in line and fabrics eventually turned into two-dimensional works such as 'Pickett'. She says of her work, 'I started making work using the patterns of pinstripe fabric, working in coloured pencil on top of acrylic. I was particularly interested in the area in a pinstripe suit where the lines converge at the seam. Since then the works have been increasingly minimal. I started making works simply using parallel lines and grids, and this led to the body of work from which 'Pickett' is drawn.'
