Description/Abstract:

Published on the occasion of the Stroud International Textiles exhibition, 'Pairings II – conversations & collaborations' curated by Lizzi Walton and Alice Kettle, and supported by Arts Council England and Stroud District Council, with a linked symposium. The exhibition ran from April 28 to May 27 2012 at the Museum in the Park, Stroud.

This exhibition brings together pairs of makers to discuss and share the experience of making. Collaboration raises questions about ownership, it tests recognised working methods and negotiates how voices resonate and sing together.

The exhibition is the culmination of commissioned work from over 20 makers and designers. Makers and designers have come together in partnership or in threesomes. Each participant has a distinct and established area of their own practice which they have shared with another maker in order to have an experience of a different material, a new process and an exchange of ideas.
