“Fabric of Life - The Fibre Show” – The annual Fibre Show at the Gallery is one we look forward to every year. Fibre artists and artisans in the area showcase their work in the endless variety of materials we call fibre.
What holds us together? Family, kith & kin, community – the fabric of life; “The word kith is Old English, and the original senses/meaning were 'knowledge', 'one's native land', 'friends and neighbours”. (Quote: Oxford Dictionary of Phrase and Fable)
We felt, sculpt, weave, sew and embroider, taking what nature gives us and turning it into items that keep our bodies’ warm or cool; transforming fibre for practical use and on into the creative realms of art.
The quality and variety of work on display each year continually excites.
