Krista Zeghers

Krista has always loved the tactile nature of fibre.  As a fibre artist she ‘paints’ with fibres of all sorts to create stunning artwork.  Cotton, silk, wool, linen and non-woven fibres; commercially printed, hand dyed, inked, or painted are used.  

Krista loves artwork where the image is recognizable to the viewer but has something unique and special about it.  There could be a change of scale, a different colour scheme, a close-up of a small section, a repeated pattern or shape; any element that makes the work come alive and provides interest.  Krista feels art needs to intrigue the viewer, make them want to look closer and spend time with the piece.
