STEWART FRANCIS EASTON (B. 1976, United Kingdom)
Breaking the traditional boundaries of craft, Stewart Francis Easton’s work fuses together hand embroidery, sonic art and music.
Drawing upon and using folk song, story and social history as a starting point Easton works with the space and weight of story to create large scale wall-based pieces which record and commemorate the passage of time within a single panel.
Easton emphasizes the need to create using the hand, as it is in this process that a
connection is made with the story - allowing a slowing down and immersion in the moment.
Most recently Easton has been exploring the connection between the process of hand embroidery / expansion of awareness / and abstract forms into a body of hand stitched works documenting a daily practice of stitching meditation.
Easton has exhibited his work in solo and group shows both in the UK and USA, including the Tate Modern in London. His work is in private collections both nationally and Internationally.
Stewart Francis Easton lives and works in London, UK.
