26 May - 21 July 2013

EXHIBITION OPENING
Sunday 26 May, 11am
To be opened by
Julie Ryder, textile artist and designer

Parallels will be an installation of contemporary textiles that explores the diversity and language of the stripe, the simplest of all patterns, yet a highly versatile tool for communication.

Rogers uses her accumulated knowledge of numerous shibori techniques, together with experimental freedom, to push the possibilities towards its creative limits, urging the viewer to see, through cloth, with new eyes; building layers of colour and emphasising the strength behind the apparent fragility of a sheer silk.
