Mick Lindberg

 

            he art of textile work was passed down from my mother & 

            grand mother.  I was born in Sweden 1950.


My passion for fabrics and fashion continued  through the years that I worked as model and later  as a Photographer.

Finally ... Needlework became the thread  of expression.


Im interested in the fusion of cultures; the overlap of  folk designs, the juxtaposition  of people, place, parable,

the Stitching of ones story,

the use of local materials to  readapt,  recycle,  reshape , revive all the traditional skills of hand stitching,

to pass on  knowledge to the benefit  of the local community.


Its what your hands know and feel that comes through in what you create.

“I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart , for giving us the opportunity  to live & work at Gibbs Farm ,

 it was an experience that we will never forget .”
