Smile Speech Bubble

Smile Speech Bubble | Tessa Apa

A lifelong creative, Tessa Apa approaches yarn with a painter's eye, manipulating colour and texture to build vibrant, layered compositions.

Working from her Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland studio, she creates bold textile art that focuses on the power of written words and universal symbols, believing deeply that language retains its voice even when woven.

Her immersive work invites the viewer to step closer, examine the detail, and make a personal connection.

Note: Hanging on a wall requires small nail pins that can be discreetly hidden.
