Arty. Textile artist Vera Alexanderova

Vera Alexanderova is a Sydney-based textile artist and designer of clothing and interior items. She studied fashion design in Moscow. After living in Mongolia for a while and having seen local felting, Vera fell in love with the material and started creating woll, silk and lace clothing and art objects. She describes this process as "magical".
