Lora Avedian
Multidisciplinary artist Lora Avedian depicts elements of narrative through textile and craft processes, employing traditional embroidery and embellishment techniques to craft modern designs. Following a successful career in set design and embroidery, Lora was awarded a Masters in Mixed Media Textiles from the Royal College of Art in 2017. She favours slow processes, focusing on short run and bespoke projects, and prefers to use antique and one-off materials such as cords, braids and ribbons when creating her pieces.

Maker's Quote
My work as a textile artist uses traditional embroidery techniques as a way to translate my drawings from my visual research into stitch. I often look at historical textiles and ethnographic objects as a starting point which enables me to create work which finds a balance between the old and the new.

The Process
Lora’s process begins with research, often looking at historical textiles and ethnographic objects as a starting point. Inspired by ceremonies and folk costume; the symbolism of the objects, colours and embroidery techniques used throughout her work are all important in telling her visual story.
