Amy Brock-Morgan is a textiles and repair artist based on the Lizard Peninsula. Drawing inspiration from her surroundings, she transforms discarded materials into something new, breathing life into remnant fabrics and end-of-roll textiles. Her wall hangings are rich with natural forms, reflecting the landscapes of West Cornwall. Alongside her own practice, Amy is Head of the Repair department at Finisterre, a guest lecturer at Falmouth University, and leads community workshops that celebrate the art of repair and sustainability.
