I studied Woven Textile Design at Loughborough University, graduating in 2012.
The relationship between colour and geometry intrigues me and my work will often reference early 20th Century design and artistic movements, specifically those formed during the interwar years for example, the Bauhaus, De Stijl, Dadaism and Constructivism. Exploring the relationship between ordered rectilinear shapes and the somewhat random nature of dip-dyeing have become key themes of my work.
Hothouse is a six month programme designed to help makers cultivate their creativity and develop their business know-how with equal measure.
In 2019, Dalia James was announced as one of the 26 creative businesses taking part this year.
The ethics and integrity of William Morris, founder of the Arts & Crafts movement has been of great importance in terms of my commitment to the craft of hand weaving and my consciousness of the effect of my practice on the environment. My transition from synthetic to natural dyes and my desire to continue to only use natural fibres is in part the influence of Morris.
