South Coast Collection

A collection of textile art using recycled fabric and admiralty sea charts has been made available in limited edition prints, cushions, cards and coasters

This stunning collection of textile art was created by Hannah Wisdom for an exhibition at the prestigious International Boat Show last month.

The artworks were created by sewing recycled fabrics directly onto discarded admiralty sea charts in Hannah’s innovative and unique style.

The collection features a colourful squid at the Isle of Wight, Spinnaker Tower at Portsmouth and a majestic heron at Chichester harbour, as well as a portrayal of Sir Francis Chichester’s iconic yacht Gipsy Moth IV on which he undertook his legendary round the world voyage in 1967.

This particular work is a limited edition of 95 prints.

Hannah’s prints are produced by a fine art printer using cutting edge 3D scanning technology. This means that the prints show all the texture and depth of the original works and are often mistaken for the originals.

Prints are dispatched directly from the printer, carefully packaged in a protective tube and are embossed with Hannah’s signature for authenticity and hand numbered.

The Boat Show also saw the launch of Hannah’s latest and biggest publicly available artwork to date – Shipping Forecast. This measures 106 x72cm and was created by sewing directly onto a full-size admiralty chart.

All Hannah’s designs are also available across a range of cushions, tea towels, coasters and cards.
