New artwork by Vivien Maule in the Art Gallery’s Square Room

Vivien has always been a compulsively creative person which, before she retired, expressed itself through home life – raising children, creating and developing a number of gardens, house renovations – in addition to her professional life. Her children have made their own lives and Vivien’s creative endeavours have become more and more focussed in her studio in Findhorn. A 2-year textile course at Moray College, completed in 2018, grounded her in textile work although she has always sewn, even as a child, earning pocket money turning shirt collars and cuffs, and side-to-middling sheets….. all sounding familiar to those of us of a certain age!
