Ailish Henderson Tyne and Wear, United Kingdom
Narrative led Fine Art Textiles - Research based artist and author ‘I will tell you the story….’ from childhood, those words have captured her heart and mind, flourishing her subsequent work as an artist and writer. Familial ties are often woven within her work, having been raised within a family with both Fine Art and Textile links.
She is the custodian of many a tale, visually detected in her practice.

She is represented by Handmade in Britain online and Made To Last. Both stock her ranges for Interiors and Fashion. She also appears at specifically curated events, which will be advertised on this website if applicable.
Most of her current ranges are also available to purchase through her shop directly.
Ever the story keeper, yet she leaves a comma. When you become the owner of a sample from a collection, you effectively have the honour of carrying on its’ narrative, coming to the full stop.
