Posted @withregram • @gallery57_contemporaryart This corner shows an interesting mix of working methods and materials - from the right, and casting a lovely shadow is Jane Ponsford’s Cross Reference 2020, handmade cotton rag paper cast onto wire, dyed with oak gall and iron, 24.5x24.5 cm - next, another of Kendall Clarke’s finely woven pieces, An Inclination, handwoven silk, stainless steel and ink painted Japanese Koyari paper 68x33 cm - next, the unmistakable work of Matthew Harris, Triple Cellophane Fragment VII and VIII, acrylic paint and linen paint on constructed cotton cloth, 21x21 cm and 29x27cm and below, one of Cathryn Shilling’s trademark woven glass cloth pieces for which she is best known. It utilises the Venetian glass cane technique - one of two Synergy standing forms, kiln formed glass with dichroic. @janeponsford #artistpapermaker #handmadepaper @_kendallclarke #fineweaving #wovensilk @matthewharriscloth #constructedtextiles #paintedandstitched @cathrynshilling #glassform #wovenglass #craftsmanship #homofaberguide @michelangelofoundation #michelangelofoundation WARP WEFT STITCH THREAD open today 12-5.

Thank you Anna @thegarnered for a lovely visit! Posted @withregram • @thegarnered Such an honour to visit the studio of textile artist @_kendallclarke at the brilliant @cockpitarts summer festival in London taking place this weekend. The textile artist is influenced by Japanese techniques and weaves unusual yarn combinations including paper and stainless steel. The results are beautiful almost ethereal works of art to adorn a wall or grace a window... #kendallclarke #cockpitarts #studiovisit #london #textiles #textileart #artist #weaving #woven #wallhanging #interiors #interiordesign #japanese #finecraft

Posted @withregram • @gallery57_contemporaryart WARP WEFT STITCH THREAD from another viewpoint- we opted for a mainly low level display. It allows for looking directly down at the textile pieces displayed on surfaces and also creates a sense of spaciousness which I like. Many thanks to @sylvia.quinnell for all her hard work in helping with the set up. #warpweftstitchthread #mixedtextiles #arttextiles #textilerelated #warpandweft #stitchthread #homofaberguide #gallery @michelangelofoundation #promotingcraftsmanship #craftsmanship #craftsmanshipmatters 3 July -8 August.

Warp weft stitch thread is now installed! Open to visitors on July 3 with a preview day on Friday 11-4. Posted @withregram • @gallery57_contemporaryart WARP WEFT STITCH THREAD - the set up has been more challenging than usual but it’s taking shape now and looking good. I will post photos soon, once the space is cleared. As you would expect from textile related work, there’s an interesting mix of techniques, materials, texture and colour in both 2D and 3D work although all textile work is 3D really whether it’s a framed piece or a free standing form. It’s day 3 of the set up and hopefully the last. As usual @sylvia.quinnell has been generous with her time and a great help - she’s the one that goes up the ladder and finds solutions to the practical problems that crop up as well as having a good eye. PREVIEW DAY 2 JULY 11-4. Exhibition opens 3 July - 8 August. #textileart #textileexhibition #warpweft #stitch #warpweftstitchthread #arttextiles #textures #stitcheddrawings #drawntextiles #newexhibition #curatedexhibition #curator #exhibitioncurator #homofaberguide @michelangelofoundation #craftsmanship #promotingcraftsmanship LINK IN BIO TO WEBSITE
