SALLY SPINKS

(b. 1963 London, UK)

Concerned about the changing nature of class, consumerism and social equity, Sally works predominantly with the ‘cosiness’ and ‘softness’ of textiles to draw people into uncomfortable realities and challenging questions. She often uses code, statistics or graffiti to explore how information and voices can be suppressed or amplified. Sally is part of two prestigious groups of exhibiting textile artists - The 62 Group and Prism. As well as being a practising artist, she also designs textiles and produces garments for use in major feature films such as The Boat that Rocked, War Horse, Dunkirk and 1917. Sally lives and works in South East London.
