Anne Davison originally studied Printed Textiles BA(Hons) at Middlesex University, graduating in 1984 and established a fashion textile design brand in Shoreditch in 1985, selling worldwide to the fashion industry in the UK, Japan, France, Germany and the USA. Amongst others, previous clients have included Yves Saint Laurent, Mantero, Etro, Daniel Hechter, Tommy Hilfiger, Macy’s and Diane von Furstenberg.

Anne now works from her studio on the Thames, having shifted her focus to producing original artworks and home furnishings, selling to retailers, interior designers as well as TV and film.

Anne Davison limited-edition prints, collages and rugs are designed and created in her bright sunny studio in Woolwich, Southeast London. Inspired and influenced by artists such as Wilhelmina Barnes-Graham, Eduardo Chillida, Ben Nicholson and Alexander Girard, Anne is predominantly interested in abstract shapes colour and pattern. Each new piece begins with creating a range of stencilled, lino printed and screen-printed papers, I enjoy experimenting with different techniques, colour combinations and the freedom this stage gives me. From here, Anne moves to development – using paper collage to explore proportion, pattern, and to the final composition.
