Working from her Flinders (Victoria) studio, weaver Emma Shepherd practises one of the world's oldest crafts with the sensibility of an artist deeply embedded in her environment.
Thinking through fabric, its strength and structure, Shepherd has acquired an innate understanding of textiles as a universal language, and of the long history of weaving as a site of innovation, intuition and intimacy. The Bauhaus ethos remains central to Shepherd’s practice, where art, craft and design are seamlessly integrated without hierarchy.

A woven body, glowing, hangs mid-air. Delicately held aloft, it seems suspended on eight limbs. They meet the ground—barely.
