    Erin Lewis-Fitzgerald: Modern mender

    Melbourne-based repair artist Erin Lewis-Fitzgerald mends clothes with visible, playful stitching that turns holes into design features rather than flaws.

    Paula Kovarik: Stitching as meditation and protest

    Memphis-based fiber artist Paula Kovarik creates layered quilted and sculptural works by cutting up her own quilts and repurposing them as raw material. Her practice channels memory, politics and the news cycle into stitch and line, favouring process over finished product. In this conversation, she reflects on her evolving 3D work, a recent Japan residency, and the day she took a chainsaw to a piece in protest.

    Craig Underhill: What the tide gives back

    Cornwall-based ceramicist Craig Underhill creates slab-built forms that blur the line between sculpture and vessel, their surfaces layered with marks and colour drawn straight from the Cornish coastline. In this conversation, Craig reflects on thirty-five years of practice, sketchbooks, glazes, and a brand new body of work that has him immersing raw, unfired clay in the sea to see what the tide gives back.

    From the archives: Vessels that hold light with Gizella Warburton

Drawing on printed and woven textile training, she describes making as a visceral, intuitive process guided by feel rather than a fixed plan. This conversation explores balance, containment, and how landscape, light and ritual shape a practice built on patience.

    From the archives: Whispers in cloth with Jette Clover

    Danish-born textile artist Jette Clover reflects on four decades of art quiltmaking – from curating Europe's first art quilt exhibitions to creating intimate, text-based collages of paper, cloth and paint. Now based in Antwerp, she discusses her daily fifteen-minute collage ritual, her fascination with weathered city walls and handwriting, and the restraint she calls "a little lipstick" – one considered touch of colour amid quiet, layered compositions.
