Artwork

Artworks & installations made from recycled textiles

Amy Wragg is a textile artist who creates colourful and tactile installations for Festivals, exhibitions, and events across the UK.

Primarily working with recycled textiles, she reimagines fabrics that would've ended up in landfill into magnificent jellyfish, and other joyful creations including giant fabric rainbows.

She welcomes commissions & creates site-specific installations, customised artwork to suit every event & venue. Please get in touch to discuss what is possible, and to obtain a quote. Each piece is completely unique and handmade. 

In 2025, she undertook a month-long residency for her giant white light-up jellyfish upstairs at The Hive, (Ipswich), and brought some public art happenings to the inaugural Ipswich Visual Arts Trail in September. (Instagram photo HERE)

In September 2024 she was commissioned by the Woodbridge Ambient Music Festival to transform a local community hall into a relaxing space to enjoy electronic music. (Photos can be found here)

Her work has been exhibited at The Longshed for the Woodbridge Riverside Trust, during their seasonal activities in December 2023.

In Spring 2023, Amy was commissioned by Suffolk Archives at The Hold (in Ipswich), to fill their enormous building – which is so big we needed a scaffolding tower to install – with jellyfish & bunting, for what is now an award-winning environmental exhibition ‘Suffolk’s Green Story’. See one example of the installation in action >>>HERE<<<

Bright, colourful & otherworldly, Amy’s unique recycled installations are extremely tactile. Each jellyfish has a unique character, with gentle stroking of their soft finger-knitted tentacles much encouraged.
