Sarah Taylor - 'Show & Tell' Staffordshire University Degree show 2013

Sarah Taylor
I had the pleasure today to see Sarah Taylor, ex Leek College Foundation Degree in Contemporary Art Practice student  (who graduated from Leek College in July 2011) at her final degree show at Staffordshire University. Sarah is graduating from the BA (hons) in Surface Pattern with an amazing collection of homeware and wallpaper designs inspired by Japanese Geometrics. Sarahs work is to be taken to New Designers as part of the FLUX collection from Staffordshire University's ceramics department and she has recently been showing her surface pattern designs Chelsea flower show as part of the designers in Stoke on Trents regeneration garden. 
Sarahs statement:
I am a freelance Surface Pattern Designer and recent graduate from Staffordshire University. I love mixing hand drawn and painted images with digital design and combining digital and hand printing to create beautiful interior decor products such as Wallpaper, ceramics, lightshades and fabrics.

 Chelsea Flower Show - Stoke-on-Trent's Transformation Garden

Sarah Taylor was selected as one of four students who got to showcase their creative skills on the world stage as part of the Chelsea Flower Show.
Stoke-on-Trent entered the Chelsea Flower Show with a stunning Transformation Garden – with the express intention of growing the city’s international reputation as a hothouse for inward investment and enterprise.

Surface pattern students also worked on fabric designs for a display of cushions for the ornamental seating. Academic group leader Sarah Peart said: “We were given mood boards from the City council to work to and the designs took account of the flowers that are in the garden. The gardens are beautiful.”
