CRAFTWORK - Get Your WOOLSWORTH

Something wooly and (w)holey impressive is about to adorn the walls of the Exposure gallery- Little Portland Street W1.

CRAFTWORK 'Woolworks' exhibition (from 15th September) comprises of two large-scale hanging textile artworks in neutral mutton colours. Working in natural wool and aluminum, the two pieces focus on fusing a variety of artistic disciplines to construct something altogether unique. CRAFTWORK adopts an array of techniques to create huge tactile wool installations adopting arts and crafts, fashion design and jewellery.



Wool is twisted into rope to produce natural patterns, bound together with a knotting method and held in place with powder-coated aluminium tubes. The trademark CRAFTWORK pompom punctuates the compositions to emphasise the tactile-textile patterns...

Baaarrilliant.
