About this Event
Zoe Pettit is a professional textile artist with a background in fashion design, art education, and oil painting. Her practice centers on the exploration of color and pattern through a wide range of fabric design techniques, including weaving, batik, printmaking, dye processes, and various embellishment methods. Drawing from her experience as a painter, she approaches textile work with a painter’s sensibility—particularly when working with batik and direct dye applications, where color, layering, and movement play a central role in the creative process.
Sustainability is a core value in Pettit’s work. She is deeply committed to repurposing objects, sourcing thrifted materials, and refurbishing furniture, allowing existing items to take on new life through thoughtful craftsmanship and design.
Her inspiration is found in the everyday—especially in the colors and patterns present in surrounding nature and architecture. Through her work, Pettit often transforms ordinary objects into pieces that feel special and unique, inviting viewers to form a personal connection with them. At the heart of her practice is the intention to bring joy into everyday moments, demonstrating that beauty and meaning can exist in even the most familiar objects.
