Discover the interwoven realms of making. Fabric, clay, plastics, paper, metal, canvas, paint, photography and film; we explore memory and making through three artists’ touch.

The materials we make with matter. Whether we illuminate the memory of making through photography and film; or focus attention on the fragility and danger to our ocean reefs through the use of upcycled plastics; or take the earth itself to fashion bas-relief images reflecting culture and history; the fabrics we create with are a vital part of our voices as artists.

Three chance met artists, influenced by their creative mothers, explore memories and making through their own imaginative artistic choices.
