Weaving, Stitching, Painting aims to explore the intersection of textiles, painting and socio-political narratives.
Through the lens of fabric, threads, and various textile techniques, the exhibition looks at many facets of the textile, from the industrially produced to the physical traces, and occasionally the expertise, of the hand, in particular looking at its position within an expanded field of painting as well as a conveyor of political and societal narratives.
