It's the weekend. Shoreditch beckons you I hope! @textiles2020 exhibition is on until Tuesday 19 May @espaciogallery . We're open 12-6 This piece centres on an object I kept for years without knowing why, made from the fabric of a dress she wore. Working with it brought back memories and the complexity of our relationship. #textilesculpture #contemporaryfiberart #narrativeart #artandmemory #textilkunst

Unfolding - Our new @textiles 2020 exhibition @espaciogallery is now open - until 19.5. Do come and see! My work starts with handmade paper and cyanotype, and is inspired by my grandmother’s Gustavian Bergère a Oreilles or ‘armchair with ears’ that has accompanied me throughout my life. A story of memory and migration. #cyanotype #papelhechoamano #papermaking #textilkonst #storieswetellourselves

The exhibition Unfolding opened yesterday with the PV last night. I'm a bit tired today but feel still buoyed by the warmth and friendship in the room. Thank you. The supportive textile community is one of the reasons why I continue to experiment and create with textiles.. There is a rare photo of me in the reel taken by my friend: @adrianclarkephotography . Take a moment to visit @espaciogallery to see the @textiles2020 exhibition Espacio Gallery 159 Bethnal Green Road London E2 7DG Opening: 12-6 14-19 May #textilesculpture #fabricmanipulation #sculpturaltextiles #tactileart #3dtextiles
