Kim trained in Fashion & Textile Design at St Martin’s School of Art, London and then worked internationally as a freelance fashion/textile designer, setting up her own business in 1992. Initially she worked with textiles and handmade paper. Since 1999, she has retrained in new techniques in kiln-formed glass and worked for 9 years with this process in her studio on the remote Isle of Skye, North West Scotland. Currently Kim works from her recently established ‘Heart of England’ studio in the former Stable Block of Sandon Hall in Staffordshire.
