Symi

Printed on recycled velvet in Manchester.

In a guilty moment of Instagram scrolling whilst on an Odyssean cruise in the Dodecanese, this 1930's textile leapt out and was swiftly secured. I spent many months trying to find out who designed or printed it originally to no avail. Influence surely taken from Etruscan wall paintings with their comparable charioteer motifs it has great vivacity & movement.
