These textile sculptures by Michelle Griffiths are created from Japanese toothpicks bound in a beautiful cream silk and tipped with gold varnish.

From a series of work entitled Cross Pollination, this tryptych was created for Collect 2025, to showcase Michelle Griffith's skill as a Shibori artist, where she pushes the boundaries of traditional Shibori techniques to create unique sculptures with an organic, subterranean quality.   

With the addition of a brooch pin, each sculpture can be transformed into a dramatic piece of wearable art.

To meet the curatorial theme,  Verity created this piece in beautiful monotones with mystical and gothic overtones.  Inspired by the forms and organisms found in nature, this work is typical of Pulford's signature work, but presented in a new and distinctive colour palette.   

Inspired by the skeletons she finds on the beaches and woods near her home in North Wales, this unusual collection of glass sculptures are beautifully imagined by Verity Pulford. 

With their contrasting black and gold details and accents, the triptych marks a different direction from the usual colours to be found in Verity Pulford's work, while evocative of the nature which inspires her work.

A stunning interpretation of our curatorial theme for Collect 2025.
