More Praxis

As promised, I'm posting more photographs of our exhibition Praxis which opended last week in the gallery at Forge Needle Mill in Reditch.

Since the subtitle of this exhibition was 'Exploring personal creativity through textiles', members have followed individual themes and interests. The work which has evolved is as varied as the personal processes which underly its making. 

For some members, there has been considerable background research and investigation of a personal theme. For others, the work has developed via personal photographs and direct exploration in sketchbooks of places visited or of personal interests. 

Shown above and also below (in this order) is work by Carolyn Sibbald, Linda Babb and Liz Harding.

... and above and shown below in this order is work by Liz Harding, Carolyn Sibbald and (just visible to the left in the main photo) Margaret Robbie. 

Finally there is a thought provoking piece by Carla Mines. More on this work in the next post!

Further details of all the artists whose work is being shown in this exhibition can be found in a previous post here. 

Quite apart from the unusual gallery space we are currently occupying, on a warm summer day, the Mill with its parkland surroundings is a lovely place to visit and offers a most interesting insight into the local history of Redditch. 

Full details of opening times and how to find Forge Needle Mill are available on their website.
