About

Samantha Goldbrom is a London-born textile artist with a background and career in fashion knitwear. After relocating with her partner and young family to the Kent Coast in 2017, she has set up her studio in Broadstairs, using her unique Art Deco home as a creative base for her textile practice, location work, styling and creative workshops.

The foundation of Samantha's work stems from a life long love of textiles and the handmade. Translated through the mindful practice of off-loom weaving and a love of mid century design, her work is influenced by a passion for the 70’s craft movement and the relationship between handcrafts and art. She draws inspiration from renowned textile artists such as Patrice Allart and Pauline Caulfield, constructing graphic and  abstract compositions, softened by a translation into textiles.

Samantha developed her woven panels from an experiment into product design, designing and making a pair of hand woven mirror frames. Each piece is created through a slow and meticulous process of wrapping, weaving and layering cotton thread onto hardwood panels, to create bold geometric statements. While each piece begins with a considered colour palette and a loose geometric plan, the nature of the process allows for adaptations and changes as each section is exposed and revealed.
