Textiles (MA)

A black, white and blue woven textile draped across an arm.

Our MA Textiles cohort come from all over the world with different backgrounds, different traditions and different ways of thinking. United by the universal language of textiles, they have collectively explored nostalgia, the natural world and identity. Together they have used their textiles practice to find community and connection whilst developing their own unique identities expressed through the medium of textiles.

This series uses water as a visual language to turn subtle urban details—cracks, damp stains, peeling walls—into emotional passages. Beneath the city’s hard, rational, orderly surface lies a range of unspoken feelings, from anxiety in the workplace to unacknowledged tenderness, exhaustion, and hope. Xiyue An
A series of knitted samples exploring emotional contradictions through material, shape, and form. The works combine soft yarn with fragile elements like broken mirrors, ceramic fragments, sharp pins, and roughly textured stone. Rounded, curved, and angular forms reflect emotional tension not only through surface, but through structure — shaping comfort, pressure, and defense into physical form. Angelina Chen
