AN EMBROYDERS' STORY by the Bound Collective


Exploring themes of heritage, storytelling, grief and love, we are reminded of the power of textiles to form connections and meanings. This exhibition binds makers and viewers together through shared emotions and experiences. Embroidered art is often caught in the polemical maelstrom between craft and art. As a result, textiles are often excluded from the fine art category, creating debate amongst artists and critics alike. Bound is the platform for this art collective to challenge the notion that textiles do not belong. It presents a collection of exquisitely embroidered pieces that combine craftsmanship with innovation, and tradition with contemporary narratives.
