Multi-disciplinary artist Daisy Tortuga is giving the humble rug a rethink The Kingston School of Art graduate’s quirky, handmade pieces aim to push the boundaries of traditional illustration, and have attracted the attention of brands ranging from adidas to Nando’s 24/02/2021 3:51 pm “The earliest memory I have of being creative is making clothes for my cats,” says Daisy Tortuga.
