Bound – Tree Art in Wales by Philippa Lawrence

An artist’s four-year project to enliven prominent dead trees by wrapping them in coloured cloth has been turned into an exhibition. Philippa Lawrence aims to decorate trees in each of the 13 old counties of Wales as part of a scheme called Bound.

Philippa Lawrence was born in Louth, Lincolnshire in 1968. She studied at Norwich School of Art (1987-1990) and the Royal College of Art, London (1991-1993). She is currently Senior Lecturer responsible for the Mixed-Media Art Textiles pathway on Contemporary Textile Practice at University of Wales Institute, Cardiff.
