I'm really pleased to be a part of the exhibition 'Let the sun shine in' curated by Sara Lindsay. Currently on view at Five Walls Gallery in Footscray the exhibition presents artists from Australia, Japan and the UK, all who engage with processes of weaving in their respective practices. I'm thrilled to share the walls with so many talented female artists.
Let the Sunshine In represents 10 multi-generational female visual artists, from Australia, the UK and Japan, who make hand woven textiles. The exhibition focuses on the formal qualities of the colour yellow, whether determined by dyes or materials used, a response to the natural environment, or a conscious desire to convey a particular emotion. We ask why this group of artists have serendipitously and independently chosen to work with yellow at this moment in time.
