Exhibtion Gathering & Unravelling 17-26 July
at PuntWG by Textile Inititative
with Bronwen Jones, Dasha Golova, Élise Ory****

We are very happy to announce the upcoming exhibition and workshop series Gathering & Unravelling at PuntWG between 17-26 July. Textile Initiative is an artistic research platform and event series, organised by artists Bronwen Jones and Dasha Golova, that expands the potential of textile craft by relating it to contemporary societal themes.

The exhibition gathers new individual works by Bronwen Jones, Dasha Golova, and Warehouse member Élise Ory, drawing on their experiences with the communal nature of textile craft practices, whilst exploring their own curiosities through the material. Through processes of unravelling, composing, reformulating, tending, and trusting, the artists explore the potential of textile material to uncover hidden stories, meanings, and values. Working with sensitivity and attentiveness, they explore themes of memory and ephemerality, the mundane and everyday, and the ways new material languages can emerge through dialogue between materials and hands.
