Material Evidence and Traces
An exhibition of new work, Traces, by Quilt Art starting in 2019 in the UK. It will then be touring and the schedule will be updated as we arrange new venues.
This exhibition celebrates the adventurous spirit and rich heritage of women artists who make art through quilting and textiles, and in particular that of our pioneering and influential founder member Mary Fogg, who died in 2016 at the age of 95. Each member of the group will take a unique approach to her legacy to create exciting, cutting-edge work which aims to transcend people’s ideas of what a ‘quilt’ is. Quilt Art: Material Evidence is the sister exhibition that is also traveling around Europe from 2019 - 2023.
The exhibitions will be accompanied by a book showcasing all the works.
