Deborah Margo’s work combines different disciplines including sculpture and multi-media ephemeral installations. Her working process is both conceptual and intuitive, based on research yet open to so-called accidents. Time, change, and touch are key preoccupations.
Current interests link her gardening practice with the making of textile-based sculptures. For the past five years she has been making dye gardens on urban and rural sites; mindfully foraging dye plants; making natural dyes and applying them to a variety of textiles. Most recently, she has been dying locally milled wools and integrating them into her knitted works.
