Debbie Smyth is textile artist most identifiable by her statement thread drawings.
These playful yet sophisticated contemporary artworks are created by stretching a network of threads between accurately plotted pins.
Her work beautifully blurs the boundaries between fine art drawings and textile art, flat and 3D work, illustration and embroidery, literally lifting the drawn line off the page in a series of “pin and thread” drawings.
Debbie plays with scale well, creating both gallery installations and works for domestic interiors.
Her unique style lends itself to suit corporate environments, public spaces, window display, set design, graphic design and illustration.
By collaborating with interior designers, architects and other creative practitioners, Debbie pushes the expected scope of her work even further.
