About Us
Bec Cutler is a Botanical Eco-Printer and natural dyer creating unique wearable and functional items using leaves, flowers, bark and roots to impart their beauty onto natural fibres such as wool, silk, linen, leather and paper. Eco-printing is a kind of alchemy, as much art as it is science. The results are achieved wholly with plant pigments, tannins and natural mordants. No artificial dyes are used in the process. Every item is unique & handmade using paper, leather, natural textiles & hand foraged flora to create wearable art, functional items & artworks.
Bec Cutler is currently available in three Riverina NSW galleries, Wagga Wagga Art Gallery, Paper Pear Gallery, Wagga Wagga and Cottongum Gallery in Deniliquin. Exhibitions of work have also been in the Up2Date Exhibition Coolamon NSW, Eastern Riverina Arts Window Gallery Wagga Wagga, Art on Ford Festival, Ganmain NSW, Ganmain Markets.
Up coming events include Yield Festival Coolamon where we will be running eco-printing workshops.
The Artist
Meet the Creator
Rebecca Cutler
Growing up farming on the mid north coast gave me an appreciation for the land and nature. I studied art all through school but am mostly self-taught. I consider myself a mixed media artist, my family consider me a bit of a bower bird, collecting random items that I see have possibilities. I feel passionate about sustainability, recycling, reduction in plastic usage and slow fashion. Returning to the country and making a home in the Riverina has allowed me to reconnect with a creative side I had put aside (during corporate city life) and explore various mediums such as printmaking, sculpture, pottery and eco-printing. Eco-botanical printing combines my love of nature, gardening, art & textiles.
