Textiles as Resistance: Contemporary Textiles from the Atlantic Region
Opening Reception: Refreshments will be served.
This group exhibition presents the work of 13 contemporary textile artists from the Atlantic Region. Historically associated with utilitarian objects and works created by women as an act of domestic labour, textile based works have too often been placed on the margins of art history. This exhibition explores the ways in which textile as object is being explored in three ways: through installations that push the nature of textile as medium, through durational work that explore the nature of textiles, the body and acts of labour, and through textiles as form to explore complex personal and social histories.
