"Fabric of Life"
“Fabric of Life - The Fibre Show” – The annual Fibre Show at the Gallery is one we look forward to every year. Fibre artists and artisans in the area showcase their work in the endless variety of materials we call fibre.
The often heard comment at Blue Knob Hall Gallery’s current exhibition is that it looks “beautiful”. This is one of the most colourful Fibre Show’s we’ve had. Fiona Shadwell’s large hand-painted cloths and Melissa Hume’s felted wrap’s are a feast for the eye as people walk in the door.
This year’s artists and artisans have more than fulfilled the requirements for a fibre exhibition and it has wowed visitors from all over. There is a huge variety of work on show. From natural to man-made fibres there is sculpture, basketry, weaving, and some clothing that can only be considered as wearable art, such is the skill and imagination of the artists.
The Fibre artists and artisans in the area have showcased their work with an endless variety of materials we call fibre. There is still time to enjoy this exhibition as it will run until Sat Aug 31st.
