Emily Robson Mercer
I am interested in connecting cultures through craft through both in the UK and by working globally, as well as in maintaining conversations around textiles and design .
I am interested in how textiles has scope for play and escapism and am focused on preserving and protecting the UK textiles industry, demonstrating how we can work globally and in partnership with other craftspeople and artisans.
