EXHIBITION: common ground
This exhibition is from two groups of textile artists, Gathered Threads and Textilia 3. We have
all produced new work to the same theme – ‘common ground’ – but have interpreted it in
our own ways, both as the two groups, and as individual artists.
Textilia 3 have used pieces from a single blanket as the common background for their separate
framed pieces; Gathered Threads’ larger scale works, comes from our common background
as students together.
Despite our different outcomes, the works started from similar inspirations; shared spaces,
loves, histories and humanities.
Open Wednesday - Saturday 11am to 4pm between 16th October and 9th November. Entry is free.
