About
Ten Cloudy is the studio practice of Natasha Kerimova, an artist and maker working with leather, reclaimed materials and traditional craft techniques. Beginning with handcrafted leather bags and accessories, her practice has evolved into a broader exploration of material, memory and form through wearable objects, sculptural works and functional pieces.
Working primarily with leather offcuts and surplus materials, Natasha transforms overlooked materials into objects with renewed purpose. Her process combines handcraft, embroidery and experimental making, allowing the character and history of each material to guide the final outcome. Today, Ten Cloudy operates at the intersection of craft, design and contemporary art, creating work that is both tactile and thoughtful.
Available for design development, prototyping, commissions, workshops, consultations and collaborative projects.
Recent awards/recognitions/scholarships: Abbey England award 2020 (won), QEST 2020 (finalist), London Creative Network (scholarship)
Natasha Kerimova is a passionate advocate of sustainability and slow fashion. To minimise production waste, she creates unique leather artworks, interior decorations and small accessories using leather offcuts from the primary Ten Cloudy collection. This project demonstrates that seemingly useless small leather pieces can be creatively transformed into powerful art objects. The resulting artworks represent the synergy of artistic inspiration, craftsmanship and environmental sustainability concerns.
Available for design, prototyping, tutoring, consultations.
