Brooke Munro
Brooke Munro is a Southern Highlands Sculptural Textiles Artist raised in Burrawang NSW. She studied a Bachelor of Creative Arts at Wollongong University where she was under the tuition of textiles artist Virginia Kaiser.
Brooke Munro has been featured in national publications including Country Style, Home Beautiful and Belle Magazine. Brooke draws inspiration from nature, femininity and traditional craft.
Her sculptural forms feature traditional basketry techniques such as weaving, netting, coiling and twining, but with an emphasis on more extreme texture and form.
This series of work has been created by reaction, using rhythm and pattern to let undefined ideas and forms unfurl.
Constructed with traditional techniques that were once used to create utilitarian objects, these pieces are reminiscent of vessels and nets. Catching, containing and carrying response.
