Jack Roberts

Jack Roberts’s art is often very varied in its outcomes but the pieces are always focused on the detail, the processes and the quality. His current work is a combination of two very different processes, firstly photography and secondly, textiles more specifically embroidery.


This current series is looking at the movement of landscapes, cars passing, people walking, and the wind in the trees. He is looking to capture this movement through these two processes to give a truer sense of the ever-changing world that surrounds us all. The initial capturing of the movements is gained through long exposure photographs, which are then translated into textiles to give a link back to the tactile nature of the subject matter.
