A quote about the artist from the V&A website:

"Maggie Henton trained as a textile artist. Her interest in the structure of weaving and the creation of three- dimensional forms led her into working with cane and making baskets. She found she could dye and weave the cane as easily as a textile fibre and often mixes found materials such as wire and plastic with it. This weave pattern was developed from the study of South-East Asian weaving techniques."
