Sarah Jane Palmer is an artist working in multiple media to express her ideas of pattern, eroticism and sacred geometry.
"What I love is that I can create design details that a glance could miss, but that a second look might reveal.
I am particularly interested in the immersive experience of developing patterns, animations and illusions, drawing on elements of eroticism, humour and suspense."
Since her degree in Painting and Printmaking in 2004, Sarah has developed a printing and pattern-making practice, including wall coverings and original artworks.
"I'm drawn to sacred geometry in nature, the incredible craftsmanship in historical buildings, and eroticism depicted in art and history."
Very early on, Sarah was inspired to pursue a collaboration with Charlotte.
"Working with Charlotte has been a real pleasure. Since we met at a networking event, I felt an instant connection; her drive and enthusiasm meant we could work together to achieve a truly exciting result.”
"Body Lace" and "Maîtrise" are the results of this creative partnership, both designs which play on what people think they are seeing but that at a second glance reveal something more.

We aim to preserve the traditional skills that a modern world can seem intent on dismissing
We use techniques like screen printing and rotary printing, while most textiles today are digitally printed; as we believe that the old skills should be preserved.
Marrying original, timeless designs with local, traditional manufacture, we produce unique artworks that each tell a story, each bear testament to the hours of thought and painstaking work that have made them what they are.
When you buy from us, you are supporting manufacturing heritage and helping to protect vital, skilled jobs. You are investing in timeless designs, distinct from disposable trends. And you are nourishing the artists, like monkey puzzle trees in our shared garden of life.
