Work With Me

Work with Me

I’m available to commission for textile work or for teaching Textiles via workshops.
I am also available to speak at events on the topics of both art and creative self employment.

For Commissions:

Check out my portfolio or email me hello@contrarytoreason.com to discuss your idea.

About Me
I graduated art school with a creative degree in Textiles in 2019, which provided me with a well rounded set of skills in many Textile disciplines including machine embroidery, dyeing, printmaking and machine knitting, as well as photography, pattern and digital design, and mark making for Textiles.
I am currently the Textiles tutor for Feral Art School, and run various workshops throughout the year for local organisations, including the Ferens Art Gallery in Hull and Our Big Picture in Grimsby.

 

Guest Speaking

I love to speak at events or groups on the topics of Art, Textiles and Creative Employment. Connecting with new people interested in these fields is always a pleasure!

I am based in Hull, East Yorkshire but able to travel as needed.

Workshops and Demos

I am happy to come and teach a variety of textile workshops, and have done so in the past. I've also shown my portfolio to aspiring young artists and delivered a careers talk regarding the arts and creative industries.
For embroidery workshops we need to have a chat about equipment and setup, but for talks and demos all I need is a room.
See my Events for details on upcoming workshops, and examples of workshops I offer.

See details above to contact me for my current rates.

Interested in something else that I could offer?

That’s great! Email me, I’d love to hear about it.

Looking forward to working with you,

Rachel
