About me
Me? I'm Seiwa Cunningham.I'm a mum and an artist. I love textiles but rarely wear patterns. My dog makes me laugh and not much makes me cry. I adored my past, but look forward to my future.
Working under the name redallover, I have run workshops since 1985. I teach art, craft, felt making, mask making, image transfer and am trained in reminiscence work.
I work with children, adults and elders of all abilities in schools, colleges, galleries, museums, care homes and hospitals.
I love to work with people with learning and physical difficulties and watch them blossom.
As a textile designer I have a keen interest in alternative methods of printing and image transfer, with the emphasis on playfulness and experimentation. I work with layered textures, fabrics and mediums. My present preoccupation is with my past and recording my early memories using photographic imagery and text on fabric.
I'm happy to accept commissions too.
