Biography
Geraldine St Aubyn Hubbard (b. Windsor, Berkshire, UK 1946) studied at Goldsmiths' College, London and West Sussex College of Art and Design (Farnham School of Art). She is a textile artist whose woven work is mostly in cashmere, silk and wood yarns and is influenced by Islamic and Indian textiles. She started her artistic career with painting inspired by plants and landscapes of the Bosham and Chichester harbour area where she grew up but soon became addicted to fabric and opened her own weaving workshop in 1970. She has taught part-time at both Farnham and West Dean College, Chichester and in 1986 a Crafts Council major award enabled her to concentrate on her production.
