Gesture in Cloth
Anderson, Louise (2016) Gesture in Cloth. [Exhibition/show, Textiles]
- Details
Gesture in Cloth is an installation of works selected to represent a breadth of approach as taken by seven professionals. It formed part of the Festival of Textiles 2016 at the Fashion and Textile Museum in London. Curated by Linda Brassington, it reflects her current doctoral research exploring craft and the notion of making in textiles as an intervention with materials – a subtle balance between the artist’s hand and material properties. Featuring work by Louise Renae Anderson, Sally Greaves-Lord, Diana Harrison, Robert Moon, Ann Richards, Mary Restieaux and Brassington herself, visitors can observe the varying ways in which each artist has developed a growing personal language in fibre, thread and cloth, chemicals, dyes and pigments. In their different ways, each piece demonstrates a transformation of textile substance. Together, they form a collection of ideas in the making: gesture in cloth.
