Rauni is based in a converted chapel in Snowdonia, where the dramatic scenery and untamed natural environment inform her designs. Her work is sculptural, but surprisingly lightweight and easy to wear. The fluid forms come alive on the body. She is fascinated by technique and process, particularly ‘Fold-forming’, which she has been developing her personal interpretation of for over a decade. Movement, flow and growth patterns are a particular preoccupation, as Rauni strives to capture something of the beauty of nature, without directly imitating it.
