Artist of the day: Sofia Billett
I am an amateur tapestry weaver based in Edinburgh, UK. My work focuses mainly on reinterpreting landscapes that inspire me and places I love, with the aim of expressing a strong sense of perspective and movement. In tapestry weaving, I am attracted to the steady, thoughtful pace of constructing a woven piece in a space where there was nothing before and to develop texture, depth and colour.My tapestries have been selected for the Cordis Tapestry Showcase Exhibitions in Edinburgh for three years running: in 2017- “Still Life” and “Alfama Roofs”, in 2018 - “Village Bay Green” and in 2019 - “Contour Vines”.
