Textile Art - Portraits

Alexandra Benson creates original textile designs that blend art, history, and storytelling. Her current series features portraits of influential, often overlooked women who have shaped society. Each face is pieced together from scrap fabric, surrounded by rich, collaged florals that symbolize strength and resilience. Through her work, Benson sparks dialogue about these women’s legacies, reminding us that history should never be fragmented, and their stories must continue to be told.
