SELF - Textilia 3

An exhibition of new textile art by Textilia 3

Exploring ideas of ‘self’ - What makes us who we are? Our identity, how we present ourselves to the outside world, our place in society, the journeys we travel... the artists of Textilia 3 explore the notion of ‘Self’ to inspire new and exciting work.

The artists use many diverse textile and mixed media techniques, including hand and machine stitch, felt, appliqué, mixed media and painting, ceramics, dyeing and resists, print and manipulated fabrics and fibres. They make abstract, figurative and decorative pieces, wall art, 3D and wearable art, as well as a range of smaller textile items and cards.

Textilia 3 is a well-established group of 14 contemporary textile artists, based in the North of England, who have exhibited widely in Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria over the last 25 years. They have built up a popular following of loyal visitors who regularly travel to see their work. Recent exhibitions have included site inspired works for Gawthorpe Textile Collection, Cliffe Castle Museum, Keighley and Fountains Abbey, as well as themed exhibitions at Ilkley Manor House, Skipton Town Hall and Farfield Mill, Sedbergh.

Exhibiting artists include:

Annie Smith, Catherine Slater, Catherine Wilson, Claire Ketteman, Gemma Kelmanson, Jan Dowman, Jo Valentine, Julie Coghlan, Kirsty Mason, Linda Dewart, Maggie Redpath, Margaret Laycock, Sue Ingles, Susie Martin
