Annie get your ........ art supplies
I have been following the Sixx design company and their 9 by design show on Bravo television. Recently I had the opportunity to research Ann Carrington, the brilliant UK artist with several pieces in the Novogratz's current home (unless it has sold, but surely some will be in the new one). Very 3 dimensional and varied in the media she uses. Some of her media is simple and everyday items. A particular move to making art from everyday objects is extremely intriguing and fun. Just have a look below at some of her pieces in the Sixx design home.
Carrington's use of 3 dimensional notions are epic in this original Queen Mum which hands in the Sixx design home. Irredescent sequins illuminate against the ebony background, all hand sewn and designed by Carrington.
This Union Jack wall hanging is pieced together with vintage denim, palid fabric and transformed into a unique wall hanging.
More rooms and works of Ann's art can be found in the book;
Downtown Chic
Ann's studio as seen by The Independent; House & Home
Unusual and usual pieces that flank the fireplace, and bring warmth and personality to her home. The fireplace screen is a Christmas decoration, Moroccan tiles add a color punch to the hearth, her own creation of horns is made from vintage silver knives. Cabinets house her custom dyed buttons for making her artwork and creations.In the front room her brass bunnies with boxing gloves for ears are displayed for artfull design.
