Penelope Jordan is an Emerging British Artist, whose work is exhibited internationally. Her abstract stitched pieces are intricate interpretations of reoccurring patterns found in natural and manmade surroundings, and are informed by three-dimensional form, shape, texture, colour and optical movement.
The aim of Penelope’s work is to interact with the audience, to display sensations of movement
