Siân has explored several ideas in her work during her career as a textile artist including use of stitch and mixed media and experimental ways of using wrapping and Shibori techniques.

Siâns' current personal subject is a commentary on family memories, incorporating both the imagery and associations of her parent’s lifetime careers as artists in South Wales.

The gathering and sorting of materials informs the methods and structures of Siân’s pieces. Fragments of photographs are colour coded and re-formed into lace-like mosaic curtains, taking the form of wall hangings and installations.

Photographic images are also printed onto fabric, which is then formed into different surfaces and structures by manipulation techniques, particularly steam-setting as in the Japanese method of ‘Shibori’.
