Judi Nikoleski Exuberance

E-mail: quiltmakers@ozquiltnetwork.org.au

Judi immersed herself in the making of creative textiles after a career change from working in publication and internet design. She has always loved working with fabric and sewing as a creative interest and the change was a natural progression. She built upon a solid foundation in graphic design and illustration by attending multiple courses in creative textiles. This was the impetus for her many series of unique art textiles which incorporate felting, dye painting and drawing, printing, silk screening, quilting and other textile techniques.

Since 2007 her creative art quilts have been exhibited in twenty five group shows in NSW, Victoria and the USA, including two juried shows at the Manly Art Gallery NSW plus three solo shows. Her work has received multiple awards for surface design, creative use of pigments and dyes and textile portraiture. Two of Judi’s art quilts have won the Best of Show Acquisitive award at the Australian Cotton Fibre Expo. Many of her wall hangings have been purchased by private individuals. She works from her studio in Charlestown NSW.
