Stitchography: Reconceptualising Place
Stitchography: Reconceptualising Place explores the intersecting, intertwining and knotting of purposive, discursive and conceptual understandings of place. Textile artist Faye Power-Griggs adopts methods of walking and stitching to draw connections between the utilitarian and functional nature of plain sewing with the purposive and everyday perceptions of suburban space. The exhibition is a presentation of the critical-creative-research outputs produced as part of Faye’s PhD that seeks to reconceptualise place as more than geographical, to consider the material and sensuous landscapes.
The exhibition opens on Saturday 17th August 2024, Hive Gallery, Upper Ground Floor, Market Place Shopping Centre. An opening event will take place on the same day 1pm – 5pm.
The exhibition will be open to the public 17th August - 22nd September 2024, Thursdays and Fridays 1pm - 5pm and Saturdays 10am - 5pm.
