Carole Bury is a professional Artist working with Drawings and Paper Textiles.
Carole works fluidly across and between textiles and drawing reflecting her love and passion with the created world around her.
Carole’s monochrome drawings emerge as a dialogue with the landscape, a dialogue in which she deepens her relationship with the land and finds its essence, referring regularly to repeated imagery. Through this deep relationship her mark making is pared down to an essential structure and language that sings.
From this essence, Carole designs and crafts paper textiles, using embroidery and constructional techniques, which have a beauty, depth and quietness of their own. The physical act of making is slow and thoughtful and in contrast to the energy of the groundwork that is in their origin.
A recent Residency at Brisons Veor in Cornwall has seen a shift in the practice of combining drawings and paper textiles. An opportunity to extend the visual vocabulary. These pleated drawings originated in the garden drawings of the Cotswolds, but have expanded metaphorically, and in reality, with the coastal wildness of Cape Cornwall. Carole extends her thanks to the Trust of Brisons Veor.
