Angela Gould is a textile artist whose work centres on memory, belonging, and the shifting qualities of sea and sky.

Based near Liverpool and shaped by a lifelong relationship with the coastal villages of South‑East Cornwall, she creates hand‑stitched seascapes in which sea, rocks and sky are distilled into bands of tone, texture, and light. Each piece is sewn slowly, by hand, without patterns or drawings - constructed from memory alone.

Her background in mathematics informs a practice grounded in structure and repetition. The horizontal registers of her work echo the quiet rhythm of places returned to over a lifetime.

Her hand‑stitched piece From the Sea View, comprising around half a million stitches, was selected for the Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition in 2024. She has since developed a body of work focused on horizon, coastal skies, and the tidal movement of the sea.

Her work is currently showing at Warrington Museum and Art Gallery to 31st May 2026.

“Perhaps everyone has a place they return to, to remember, to belong. These seascapes invite you to mine.”
