From the ritual and repetition guided by the hand, the needle and the machine comes the power of cloth as a storytelling tool. Where single strands are woven together to make a whole – every fibre of your being and of histories past, translate to textile.
FIBRE is an exhibition showcasing the creations of craftspeople currently working in textile-based practises, or experimenting with unconventional materials in order to mimic or pay homage to cloth. Showing at Brunswick St Gallery, 4-22 Dec 2019.
