Textiles from Gibsons

I am driven by a great love for textiles, all the work that goes into creating them and the history behind each piece.

Maya Bergeron

Maya is the founder of Uni Design, a slow fashion and textile art project based in Vancouver, B.C., driven by a passion for sustainability and creative expression.

Uni began with a vision to transform fashion into a force for good. Each piece is carefully crafted by hand using upcycled and repurposed textiles of all kinds, including vintage linens, wool, silk and cotton.

Each piece is only one of one. They are all made with second-hand, carefully sourced "waste" materials. These textiles are patchworked together using a technique borrowed from modern quilting called improvisational sewing. This means that the fabric is created by putting together textile scraps in an abstract manner based on their size and weight.

The result is a celebration of fabric and colour that you can wear, wearable art!

Supporting Artists, Supporting Community

Circle Craft is more than a gallery or a shop. We're a co-operative, owned and run by the artists who make up our membership. That means when you buy from Circle Craft, your purchase goes directly back to the maker behind the work. No middlemen. No corporate margin. Just a community of over 140 B.C. artists building something together, and a place where craft, creativity, and livelihood are all the same thing.

Made in British Columbia, Canada

Circle Craft is rooted in B.C., where 140 artists across the province draw inspiration from some of the most extraordinary landscapes on earth. From the rugged coastline to old-growth forests to the high desert of the interior, our makers are shaped by the place they call home. That connection to this land isn't just inspiration. It shows up in every piece, every medium, and every collection we carry.
