For those who were unable to make it here are some photographs of our exhibition "Uncommon Threads" at the Manly Q Station (taken very generously by Bec). It was an interesting experience to work with the historic house that was originally the living quarters of the doctors and nurses. I felt that we managed to inhabit the space without overpowering it. It was both challenging and exciting to work within the parameters of the historic houses requirements. It was especially interesting for us as textile artists to work in a domestic space as many of the techniques we use originate from the domestic sphere.

Nice summary Gill,
ReplyDeleteI think the images of Cathie's work are particularly lovely.
Hello,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Laura Carey and I am the Gallery Assistant at Gallery Lane Cove. We are a new contemporary art space in Lane Cove, Sydney and we are putting together a textile group show in March 2013. We are excited about the contemporary textiles currently being produced and are assembling a small group of artists so that we can showcase some of the contemporary textiles being created across Australia.
We saw came across the collective and we really like your work that you put together in uncommon threads and would love to chat the collective about potentially being part of the show ? Would it be possible to get your contact details to discuss this further?
I look forward to hearing from you.
All the best,
Laura Carey
