Samantha Boot is a contemporary Artist Maker, working by hand with thread, cloth and words.
Drawn to the ancient lineage and domesticity of her materials and processes, she creates thoughtful, quilted works inspired by the narrative of place and memory using natural dyes, found cloth and traditional quilting techniques.
A personal lexicon of hand stitches further imbues each piece with layered meaning, which reaches beyond the aesthetic, and grounds the work in the slow, meditative processes involved in their creation.
A recipient of Arts Council England DYCP funding (2022), she has had work exhibited nationally and internationally, and has had a number of articles about her practice published around the world.
Samantha is available for commissions, collaborations, workshops and talks.
Samantha initially joined Design-Nation as an Associate in 2024 and became a Professional member in mid 2025.
