About Aruna Mene

A recently retired hospital consultant , now a passionate advocate of recycling and upcycling of textiles and fabric waste and creating exotic , uplifting , one of a kind fabric collages on canvas and other objects of beauty from fabric waste. I have had several successful solo exhibitions. My work has appeared on the covers and inside many magazines, calendars and newspapers. I support various charities through my art , as all profits from the sale of my art and merchandise are sent for the benefit of charities. I have now relocated to Hertfordshire ( Brookmans park/ Hatfield) and am happy to travel within 60 miles of my home, including to North London .
