Background
I studied printed textiles and initially established my fashion textile design brand in Shoreditch in 1985, selling worldwide to the fashion industry in the UK, Japan, France, Germany and the USA.
Now working from my Southeast London studio on the Thames, I offer unique designs, created and sustainably produced in the UK. My new range of art prints, wrapping paper, cards, notebooks, rugs and cushions celebrates modernist design.
I predominantly start with lino printing or screen printing my initial images and collaging them together to develop my original pieces. It is a playful approach to image-making, where I experiment with colour combinations and the shapes that evolve. The end products - giclee prints, cushions, rugs, and stationery are suitable for personal and commercial projects. I collaborate with British manufacturers and makers, so each piece is beautifully made, using natural materials to ensure a high-quality product.
Driven by a passion for pattern, colour and quality, Anne Davison Studio creates art and products to inspire.
