Present Tending: exhibition and lunchtime discussion


Present Tending brings together six artists, indigenous and non-indigenous, who work with the materiality and histories of cloth and plant colour. Conceived pre-covid, the project took many twists, turns and pauses. For these artists, the textile is an object and tool of care, and in this exhibition it becomes a site of resistance or intermediary between the inevitable tensions and challenges of working from home. The range of approaches explored by the artists is a testament to the creative ways artists managed isolation, home-schooling and ongoing employment and financial pressures over the last few years.
