About
Working across textiles, painting, and other forms, Hurley-Walker’s practice is centred on the human form, often featuring isolated figures within layered compositions of colour, pattern, and organic markings. Shapes and lines drawn from nature find their way into her work through texture, repetition, and gesture, with garments and rugs treated as paintings in their own right.
Each piece at slhw is unique and meticulously crafted by the artitst in the studio. With an awareness of the environmental implications of making, she places particular importance on considered sourcing - resisting the temptation to buy new, often cheaper, yarns, fabrics, and materials, and instead working with high-quality deadstock and reclaimed materials wherever possible.
Alongside her own work, Hurley-Walker collaborates with artists, musicians, and companies on a range of projects, including album artwork, zines, videos, and physical installations.
