Hi & Welcome!

I’m Jasmine, a BA (hons) textiles graduate from the University of Edinburgh. I am passionate about using my textiles skills to explore social and political issues. I am able to utilise my drawing ability to create illustrative prints and designs that help to tell a story. My final collection for my degree explores sexual assault through conversational print, in conjunction with UV pigment. The UV pigment has been used within my prints to add a multi-functional and bold element to my prints, making certain areas shine out brightly under a black light.

If you or someone you care about is experiencing sexual violence or abuse please use the following links. You are not alone.
