Throughout time, mythologies have offered explanations for humanity's existence through shared verbal and visual stories and beliefs. Margaret is among the many artists who have drawn inspiration from these ancient mythologies as a thematic source, blending traditional elements with modern interpretations in her work. By harnessing a rich well of mythological influences, Margaret creates pieces with multiple layers of significance.
 
These ancient tales of passion, ambition, greed, and human suffering continue to captivate audiences today just as they did millennia ago. Driven by the enduring fascination with unusual bodies or "otherness", the images raise important questions about humanity's relationship with nature, the value of diversity and difference, and how history shapes our understanding of natural phenomena.
 
Colour is an integral part of her work and Margaret dyes yarns to a bespoke palette for each tapestry. Whilst wool is the predominant yarn, silk, linen and Tencel are also used to achieve subtle changes of light and colour within the weavings.
