Belfast-born and London-based, Jenny McIlhatton creates interdisciplinary work focused on textiles and sculptural installations. Her ritualistic, repetitive hand processes transform fashion waste and found objects into sacred spaces that invite tactile engagement and contemplation. Reflecting on her upbringing during conflict, McIlhatton’s practice offers calm and meditation, treating materials with reverence as extensions of the earth itself. Committed to sustainable renewal, her work embodies a gentle resistance to destruction, embracing transformation and care and fostering a profound connection between art, environment and memory.
