ABOUT
Presley sees materials and fabrics as the starting point of her work—not simply as surfaces, but as tools for building and developing ideas. She is particularly drawn to the processes of collaging, draping, and experimentation, exploring how forms emerge and evolve through making. Her practice embraces the manipulation of textiles through both traditional and unconventional materials.
Transformation plays a central role in her work. She is interested in how materials shift, deteriorate, and change over time, using these processes to reflect themes of growth, fragility, and renewal. Each material carries its own character and meaning, helping to shape the narrative behind every piece.
Through her practice, Presley responds to the world around her and engages with ideas she feels are important to bring forward. Her goal is to create work that sparks conversation, challenges expectations, and encourages viewers to consider alternative perspectives.
