About Mary Jean  

​

MJ graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 2017 with a BA (Hons) in Performance Costume. 

 

Her work investigates a broad spectrum of ideas, taking inspiration from historical and contemporary costume design and often blending the two influences in her work. 

 

She is an innovative and experimental textile artist who engages heavily with fabrics during the design process. Her work frequently juxtaposes a diverse array of materials, delicately blending and combining fabrics, much as a fine artist might mix paint. Her work takes on a beautifully textured and highly distinctive aesthetic as a result.
