Interwoven 7 brings together basketry and textile artists from the Canberra region and the NSW South Coast.
Artists draw on a range of fibre traditions, combining natural, synthetic and recycled materials. They use twining, coiling, looping, stitching and assemblage to reinterpret fibre art from functional vessels to sculptural forms, with each artwork contemplating the passion and concerns of its maker, telling stories, or reflecting on emotional responses to places and events.
Traditional and experimental works relate to generations of makers that have come before, interacting with material, pattern, colour, design and texture, making the practice of fibre art a mindful, meditative, and soul-nourishing practice for most makers.
