ABOUT

Jodie Posen is a weaver and textile artist based in the canton of Vaud, Switzerland. Her works combine colour, pattern and surface through playful and exploratory use of dyes, yarns and unconventional materials. Drawing inspiration from her surroundings, Jodie is interested in how the loom can abstract ideas and create beauty from the mundane.

Sensitive to the growing need for low impact methods of working, Jodie is currently adapting her practice to one which is more environmentally conscious including choosing natural dye processes over chemicals, upcycling waste into her artwork and taking care and consideration when sourcing materials.
