Jasmine is back from showing her new collection at Made Brighton. MADE BRIGHTON took place between the 22nd and 24th November in the BRIGHTON DOME – CORN EXCHANGE.

Made Brighton again welcomed over 120 innovative and original makers and designers, (including Jasmine) to show and sell their work directly to the public. Jasmine was inspired by the variety and talent of the other designers on show. She also was glad to have received so many compliments and interest in her work by members of the public.

About Jasmine Hixson

Featured

Jasmine Hixson trained at St Martin’s School of Art and established her studio at Brancepeth Castle in the 1980s.

Test Gallery

 “I design across a range of disciplines. Starting out as a fashion designer I learnt to weave in order to create the fabrics I couldn’t buy.”

“I experimented with surface decoration too, dyeing and hand painting velvet and  silk chiffon.”

Jasmine’s work has always been technique driven.The completion of one project always sparking ideas for the next.

“I developed and refined methods for dyeing velvet, and over many years I have produced ranges of fashion accessories and I design textiles and hangings to commission for interiors.”

Latterly Jasmine has returned to her primary preoccupation, creating woven fabrics using natural fibres, aiming to achieve suppleness and tactility and cutting intricate patterns that enhance the human figure.
