As part of our ongoing DARN + Friends series, the Simon Bayliss 4 DARN collaborative 100% silk scarf design has been created by Simon Bayliss, an artist and music producer based at Porthmeor Studios in St Ives, Cornwall, UK.

Featuring a collage of imagery and ideas, inspired by the memorable works of English artist and sculptor Dame Barbara Hepworth. Distinctive Hepworth sculptural and coastal imagery has been interwoven amongst elements from Simon’s own work, including shapes from the surface of his ceramic pots and items that have been floating around his studio.

‘Puckered lips, pressed leaves, the frisson of a wave against rocks, echoed forms found in modernist abstract painting, and feathered lines of clay slip, like cake icing). I was asking myself `What would Babs Hepworth wear?’’

This design is available in two sizes. Seen here in our original dimensions and in a slightly larger 57cm x 57cm variation.
