About me

Eliza Belle is a BA Printed Textile Design and Surface Pattern graduate from Plymouth College of Art, living and working in Devon.

Eliza's practice is currently textiles based, using the techniques of rug punching and embroidery to create wall tapestries and bespoke rugs. Alongside this focus, she explores other mediums to elevate and understand her work, including drawing and writing. Her last body of work titled Everything Will Wait For Us, focuses on human nature and connection, both to ourselves and the world around us. Beginning from autobiographical poetry and prose, Eliza developed these loose ideas into drawings, which then eventually evolved to become pieces of tufted art. Exploring these ideas of connection, our relationship with ourselves as artists and as humans moving through the world, the practise becomes a reflective one, understanding through the act of making.
