The Fabric of East Riddlesden: Inspiration from the Hall and its grounds

About this event

Textilia 3 is a well-established group of contemporary textile artists, based in the North of England, who have exhibited widely in Yorkshire, Lancashire, and Cumbria over the last 25 years. 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 The Station, Richmond. Their latest exhibition draws on the rich architecture, historic collection and serene landscape of East Riddlesden Hall, resulting in a vibrant showcase of pieces that respond uniquely to the space. The artists in Textilia 3 use many diverse techniques, including hand and machine stitch, felt, appliqué, mixed media and painting, ceramics, dyeing and resists, print and manipulated fabrics and fibres. Discover beautiful works of art in the Entrance Chamber exhibition space from 28 March until 21 October.
