"Weaving is my way of putting the everyday chaos in order and make something honest and beautiful out of it".
Maria Sigma says that her "approach to design is based on the idea of creating beautiful functional textiles and objects through 'zero waste' design and craftsmanship by re-interpreting traditional craft techniques in a lively, colourful, and contemporary way. High-quality and sustainable natural fibres (British wool) are key to the philosophy of my work, in which the aspiration for textile longevity through simplicity and sensibility is essential."
After completing her studies in Textile Conservation in Greece Maria went on to complete a degree in Textile Design at Chelsea College of Art and Design. See Maria along with many other new and talented designers specialising in everything from furniture to ceramics at New Designers – One year on.
