Innovation and transformational practice is at the core of this unique textile exhibition, with exhibiting artists exploring the creative tensions that exist between accomplished skill, experimentation and the development of new ideas.
About
Ctrl/Shift takes shifts and changes as its theme; in particular it is centred on artists whose practice is or has transformed, in small or large ways, especially towards expressions of innovation in textile art. These shifts may be around changing attitudes to control; the introduction of new materials and techniques; and/or the impact of innovative and contemporary themes and ideas, and evolving technologies.
The exhibition comprises over thirty artworks by twentyfive artists, including carefully selected outcomes from a collaboration between three artists who reflected on and were inspired by each other’s work.
The exhibition concept has been developed in partnership with the 62 Group and independent curator Liz Cooper.
The exhibition shows at dual venues; 20-21 Visual Arts and Scunthrope Central.
