Meet the artist
Hi, I’m Amanda Forsyth.
My work explores the tension between our consumer-driven, throwaway society and the enduring value of traditional craft. Through hand embroidery, I transform cherished and vintage objects into renewed artworks, preserving their history while reimagining their future.
I’m particularly drawn to heirlooms that I embroider with vibrant colours and intricate forms, creating scenes where nature and artifice intertwine — reflecting both the beauty and fragility of our ever-changing world.
