Join artist Anna Ray as she discusses her practice and the sculptural textile works in her current solo exhibition Fibre and Form.
About
Fibre and Form focuses on large-scale sculptural wall pieces created over the past 20 years. It features two newly commissioned works entitled Mesh and Rosette, which have been fabricated during the pandemic, supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England. The exhibition pivots on these ambitious new assemblages and Ray’s seminal wall piece Margate Knot, originally produced for the exhibition ‘Entangled: Threads & Making’, Turner Contemporary (2017).
Ray offers an artistic practice that is highly accessible and appealing to the public, while also pioneering within the field of art textiles and soft sculpture. Her assemblages are full of joy and life; their palette bright and varied; their form and surface rich and highly tactile.
There will be a Q&A session at the end of the talk. The event is free but please book your place in advance.
