It’s a gutsy move these days to frame a major visual art exhibition around the idea of being ‘radical’.
For example, is it radical to be among the first artists to use certain materials (like textiles) or express ideas in ways that no other artists have tried before? The answer to that is almost certainly ‘yes.’
Starting with the theme of ‘revival’, there are a number of finely-crafted small-scale works dotted throughout the show that speak to the idea of how certain contemporary artists are committed to keeping legacy textile traditions and techniques alive in the modern day.
