I am pleased to be exhibiting this piece Doing Time - a timeline for coping with a prison sentence by marking off or counting down the days. It was created for my MA Textiles course, but was not exhibited then because of the pandemic. Restrictions on freedom touched us all during lockdown, but confinement of any sort – social, physical or mental – may involve similar ways of dealing with it.
MAKING MATTERS
Delighted to be joining the Making Matters team for the second PopUp of 2022 in Farnham.
THREADS - Stanley Spencer’s textiles: a newly launched virtual exhibition, curated by a group of volunteers from the Stanley Spencer Gallery. Includes observations and descriptions of the textiles in a range of Spencer's pictures and explorations of underlying narratives.
