to handle / to hold

To Handle / To Hold centres the material of clay and fibre as barometers of cultural history. It is a complex interrogation of social politics, identity and the sensory of the handmade in the digital age. The exhibition juxtaposes textiles with ceramics, alongside the convergence of materials and concepts in a single artwork or across an individual's practice. Through material crossings of fibre and clay, the assembly of sculpture and installation redirects signifiers of domestic space and female labour to contemporary art and social discourse.
