Jennifer Slattery Textiles

“I love things with character and with flaws. In looking to the past I embrace those flaws. It’s the quirky little things, the things that survive beyond the generations.”

Jennifer Slattery’s printed work is inspired by the past, in particular by her grandmother. “I’m not interested in headlines, rather the detail of the story. My work is a celebration of the everyday heirloom.”

She lives in her grandmother’s house and is the fourth generation Slattery to live there. This sense of heritage inspires her work.

Items that once belonged to her, china and cutlery, for example, forge a connection with the past. It’s a ghostly connection with the past but the uniformity of modern life bores her.
