Land, Rock and Dirt.

Land, Rock and Dirt is a tactile textile and collectables collection that explores our relationship with the natural world. Grounded in nature’s renewing qualities, it invites moments of stillness within our fast-paced, highly stimulated lives. This project encourages a reconnection with the earth, reminding us that nature is not something we visit, but something we live alongside.

Inspired by the raw beauty of landscape and terrain, the collection forms an immersive environment, with all textiles made from natural fibres. It becomes a quiet offering to the earth beneath our feet, recentring our attention on the presence of land, rock, and dirt. Through sensory materials and collectible objects, the work invites pause, reflection, and closeness with the natural world.

Prints and textures are drawn from formations shaped without human interference, including eroded surfaces, shadows, and cracked soil. In these landscapes, especially when encountered alone, we are reminded of our smallness and of the immense, indifferent beauty that exists beyond our control.

Rock + Bronze

Each bronze vase in the collection is paired with a piece of chalk. Together, they bring the presence of rock into the home and give it a purpose. These objects elevate a raw, overlooked material and offer a way to hold space for nature’s quiet power within our everyday surroundings. Land, Rock and Dirt is made to surround us, encouraging surrender, detachment, and a deeper recognition of something greater.

I would like to thank Nick Tydeman for photographing the complete collection and helping bring my vision to life so thoughtfully.

A heartfelt thank you to my mother, Ann Wigmore, for collaborating with me on the jewellery pieces; each one inspired by the textures that surround us. I’m also deeply grateful to my aunt, Ros Farrell, for working with me to weave the scarf featured in the collection. These collaborations expanded the work in ways I couldn’t have imagined.

Thank you to Lula Stewart for modelling the garments, and to Tom O’Dell, thank you for generously loaning pieces from your Armoire Archives to pair with my work.
