Jennifer Robertson crafts textiles into detailed narratives that echo the weather, natural phenomena, and the tessellations engraved in the Earth's rock, resulting in monumental woven art. Her process begins with extensive research, and she utilises photography, drawing and sampling before moving to final prototypes and artistic textile work on the loom. Working with a multitude of thread materials, the objects she makes span a varied spectrum of colours, effects and textures in innovative, multi-layered woven artworks. Jennifer first studied woven textiles at the (formerly known) West Surrey College of Art & Design and completed her postgraduate studies at London’s Royal College of Art. After moving to Australia in 1986 and teaching her craft at the Australian National University in Canberra, in 1997, she became a luminary of the woven arts. From 2001 to 2003, Jennifer received the two-year, once in a lifetime, Australia Council Visual Art Craft Fellowship, pioneering innovative technical and artistic research in triple cloth weaving.
