Rachael Singleton - Stone

Rachael is an experimental textile and mixed media artist living in West Yorkshire, England.  She describes her residency at the Nature in Art Museum and Gallery as a “cocoon of delight!” If you listen deeply and look closely, you will see how Rachael’s obsession with stone and stone walls seeps into all her work. Her feelings and experiences and surroundings all contribute to unique and thought-provoking pieces of art. During our chat, she talks about containment and constraint, delicious boredom, and Helen Keller’s keen observations.Takeaways“Music is the space between the notes.” Claude DebussyYour work teaches you AFTER you've done it.You need other people to notice things in your work that you may not see.Look down and in for creativity and up and out for a sense of well-being.Take time to contemplate and mull, and simply look long enough to see things from a distance.LinksRachael SingletonRachael on InstagramRachael on FacebookBlue PeterKim ThittichaiNature in Art Artist in Residence programDo: PauseKrystyna PomeroyHenry Moore, London’s War: The Shelter Drawings of Henry MooreThe Song of the Stone Wall, Helen KellerJacob Nordby
