Danielle Clough - Making a Racket Part 2 [NX046]


Listen Later

In this episode of NeedleXChange I interview Danielle Clough, aka Fiancé Knowles.

Danielle is an South African artist known for her vibrant and expressive embroidery work, characterised by bold colours, movement, and layering, creating a visual impact that evokes joy. She believes in the inherent goodness of people and the power of support and validation in fostering self-confidence.

This is the second part of our NeedleXChange and we explore Danielle's colour theory, discuss some of her other projects and meander through her cultural touchpoints. It's such a pleasure talking with Danielle and I hope you enjoy it!
