Elisa Markes-Young is an artist of Polish-German origin based in Perth, Australia. In her work Elisa uses mostly natural fibres, textiles, techniques and skills that are – at least in cultures of European origins – traditionally attributed to the female field of experience. Her work is an ongoing exploration of materials and experimentation in methods particular to the textiles medium in a contemporary context. The results are unconventional artworks that are a fusion of sculptural and textile techniques.
