"How do you communicate when you can't understand the words being spoken to you?

How do you ease the isolation when no-one understands you?

How do you speak when your brain Just. Won't. Work?

How do you remember the person you were when the world doesn't understand the person you're becoming?

With great difficulty, a lot of tears, dark humour over the ridiculousness of the situation and holding your loved ones even closer. And every now then when that communication gap is bridged - With a look, a gesture, an ""I love you"", you know the message was received and understood. That Flash of Brilliance makes all the other moments fade away.

This collection is dedicated to the challenges myself, family and friends are encountering daily as a result of Dad suffering from Primary Progressive Aphasia. A terrible, incurable condition. And while it's pretty bleak, we can't focus on the bad, what we have today is far more important than what we've already lost, or what's to come - the way family has gotten closer, arguments have been set aside, friends rallying, spending more time together and learning to appreciate every single moment, truly living in the now.

""Flashes of Brilliance #2"" is the smallest weave in this collection.

This woven wall hanging has been created using a variety of natural fibres, including wool, cotton, bamboo, cotton, merino, silk, ribbon and hand spun art yarn. The fibres and colours shift and flow together, layered over and over again. The result is a textured, bold, statement wall hanging that begs to be touched. The piece is mounted on on a piece of foraged wood, ready to hang.

This hand woven piece will compliment any décor, adding a bold focal point of texture in a minimalist space, or a textured statement in an eclectic, maximalist space. Evoquing different emotions depending on the how the light falls on the piece as the day progresses - a bright, golden statement in direct sunlight, shifting shadows as the daylight fades and finally a soothing, moodiness as night falls and warm electric lighting takes over.

- Handwoven by Aurore in her Staffordshire studio
- Dimensions - Width 18 cm, Height 29 cm (inc. dowel), Depth 8 cm

- All the fibres used in this piece have been sourced from small, British businesses. It is an integral part of Aurore's ethos as an artist to source from local businesses, and strive to make as little impact on the environment as possible through her practice."

Lose yourself in a woven landscape

Are you a sensualist? Do you love texture and colour and how they interact with each other? Do you long for art you can touch and not just look at? Have you got blank walls that need to be filled?

Then, get ready to fall in love!

Aurore Knight is a Textile Artist, inspired by the wildness of the world, the small hidden details, the extraordinary that can be found in the ordinary, if you just take the time to look.

“When I weave, the world disappears. I get lost in the slow, meditative, over/under movement of weaving. It stills my inner critic, it allows my mind to wander, and brings me a sense of peace. The wildness of the world intrigues me and I’m inspired to recreate this through weaving. The small hidden details, the extraordinary that can be found in the ordinary, if you just take the time to look. I’ve come to realise that the only thing we really have is the PRESENT. I don’t want to live my life waiting for an imagined future to arrive. I won’t stifle my dreamer anymore. It’s her turn in the sun!

My greatest wish is that my weavings inspire a feeling of calm, allowing your mind to wander, to lose yourself in the woven landscape, to fall in love with your dreams again.”

Aurore predominantly uses natural fibres, taking great pride in supporting local artisans. She is self taught in these mediums.


Born in France, Aurore grew up in Ireland and has lived in France, the UK and the UAE before finally settling in the UK with her husband, three boys and two dogs.
