Shane Morris

Shane is a textile artist residing in the vibrant city of Wellington, Aotearoa.  Her
passion for design and architecture and lifelong love affair with textiles converge in
uniquely designed items for interiors.

Two different collections of work sit under the umbrella of Deep Green INC :
Textures of Aotearoa and Textile.Exile.

For the last 18 years Shane has created display cushions, table runners and wall
hangings, bringing together materials that evoke pride in our unique place in the
world. She incorporates organic elements such as feathers, pāua shell and woven
matting to create a work that celebrates the diversity of Aotearoa- Textures of
Aotearoa. A new range, Pā o te Hā ,has been designed in collaboration with her
daughter Ariana  (Ngāti Toarangatira, Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāpuhi).

Textile.Exile has emerged more recently as a separate channel for Shane to explore
the processes and techniques of printing her own original abstract artwork on fabric.
Proportion, balance, colour and texture are among the elements which come
together in original and high quality soft furnishings created to enrich interiors and
stand apart from things widely available commercially.
