2023 Artist in Residence – Maggie Wretham

Maggie Wretham is a textile and wearable art artist. Her journey started in Townsville where she explored recycled and discarded items for building wearable art pieces.

Maggie’s latest passion is working on denim jeans, that would be otherwise headed for the rubbish tip. The hunt for denim has become a passion, being able to make something beautiful and save it from landfill. Beach glass and pianola roll paper are featured in Maggie’s latest wearable art.

Her piece, ‘Tribute to Van Gogh’ won the Best Wearable Art award in 2021.
