Bethany Williams: I’m from a tiny island in the middle of the Irish Sea called the Isle of Man. My mum was a pattern cutter and designer for a factory and we had a home studio, so I’ve been surrounded by fashion from early age. Before LCF I studied BA Critical Fine Art Practice at Brighton University. The course gave me my interest in critical theory, which is the backbone of my work. It introduced me to the way art practices provide alternative systems to run against globalisation and homogenisation.
