Alice Bickerton is a multi-media artist working across textiles, illustration and painting, with an MA in Textiles from the Royal College of Art. Her work draws on folk narratives, poetry and superstitions to tell stories about the natural world, using second hand materials and natural dye through hand appliqué and embroidery.
Flora Beetle's draw on the intricate shapes and decorative patterning found in nature, alongside the fantastical botanical forms of the Voynich manuscript and the flower studies of Victorian illustration plates. Alice imagines fictional beetles morphed with flora, invisible to the human eye and existing only within their own realm.
