Textiles, Fashion
Residency Dates: May 4-31, 2025
Studio H Canada is thrilled to welcome Ruby Webb, an emerging, size inclusive fashion designer and textile artist from Oregon, USA.
Most of the time, my garment creation is the beginning and the end result is photography. I sew pieces in my studio basement and then once I’ve finished, I tend to naturally think about ideas of where/how I might want to photograph them. Textiles consciously and unconsciously motivate me to merge the lines between my concepts, spaces, and imagery.
During my time at Studio H I plan to create a sustainable garment collection, take photos on the land & create a small lookbook! I want to soak up moments of time where I’m able to just create freely in a new environment. Sewing consistently, exploring the community & savoring my month spent here are the things I’m looking forward to the most!
