Meet Nade Simmons

Nade is a contemporary freestyle embroidery artist creating bold, bright abstract art using crewelwork stitching, beads, paint, jewellery and reclaimed materials.  Her work is a vibrant fusion of graffiti-inspired art blended with traditional hand stitched embroidery techniques. Nade gained her HND in Design & Creative Arts before completing her BA in Applied & Media Arts at the University of Hertfordshire. In 2019 Nade was accepted to The Society for Embroidered Work and won a bursary with The School of Stitched Textiles to study hand embroidery. Her favourite thing to work with is chunky neon pink wool and a large plastic needle!
