Hello, I’m Jeni, an Edinburgh-based artist and designer engaging with the visual elements of domestic space and material culture through large scale textiles. My work often marries traditional techniques with digital innovation.

I create large scale textiles mostly through knitting and weaving, which often depict or reference other textiles or patterns found in domestic spaces.
