HOLMES À COURT GALLERY @ NO.10 PRESENTS …
_FIBRE_ is an unwrapping, unrolling and unfolding of fibre and textile
artworks from the Janet Holmes à Court Collection, together with
works from local artists.
_FIBRE_ features stitched, threaded, strung, rubbed, ripped, folded
and pressed fibre textile art. From luminous to opaque, delicate to
robust, the works speak of processes of material manipulation. They
present ritualistic gestures of folding and the repetition of
stitching, rubbing and patterning. The natural world is a deep source
of inspiration and its richness and fragility is conveyed alongside
ideas about mortality, intimacy and cultural belonging.
