Artist Statement | I’m a Japanese fibre artist based in Australia, creating dolls with plant-dyed wool felt and pictures through felting. For this challenge, I made small felt pictures using leftover fabric and threads. I looked forward to the 6am prompts, even learning new words and chatting about them with my family. Without time for patterns, I embraced freehand cutting, which led to new creative ideas. The experience was both challenging and rewarding. Most of all, discovering new artists through this journey has been the greatest gift.
