Agy Farmer b.1997

by.agy is the alias I use as an artist creating surface and clothing textile pieces, as well as drawing, prints and mixed media studies. I graduated in 2019 from Winchester School of Art with a Fashion and Textile BA,

having my passion for clothing and drawing fuelled by my mum and granny ever since I can remember. by.agy is a place for creating one-off artworks whether on antique paper and placed in a frame or using silk organza and worn on the body. Inspiration is drawn from early 20th century literary and artistic figures, their work and personal stories; frequently centering around female and queer narratives.

​

I use only natural, vintage and deadstock materials with  a strong focus on sustainability; dyeing with handmade, natural concoctions and creating pieces that will be cherished and passed onto others as a beautiful statement against fast fashion. I'm  passionate about personal identity and the stories we can wear, whilst looking after the planet and the inspiration nature gives us.​
