Petra Stark
Mixed Media, Textiles and Nature Finds
I have always been a maker at heart, drawn to the joy of creating with different materials and techniques. In recent times my practice has grown into mixed media work, with a particular focus on repurposing pre-loved and found objects alongside natural materials. There's something deeply rewarding about giving discarded things a new life — and something equally compelling about working with what nature offers, knowing it will keep changing long after a piece is finished.

My work is about individuality, embracing imperfection, and celebrating the transience of life — all of which feel like reflections of life itself: a little messy, yet beautifully rich in character and detail, and sometimes only visible in a fleeting moment.
