Artist's statement
Ria’s work aims to champion the natural hues and qualities of British wool, incorporating vibrant flashes of colour through hand dyeing with native and foraged plants.
Inspired by the conflict between the natural and the man-made, this translates into a knitwear collection that is an antidote to fast fashion, designed for longevity and made to be cherished, looked after and passed on.
