Katharine Swailes is thrilled to announce that she has been selected to exhibit at Collect Open 2019. Curated by the Crafts Council at Saatchi Gallery, London, Collect Open provides a platform for 15 individual artists to show ambitious and conceptual craft led installations.
Swailes will be showing her new wall installation, ‘Glyphs and Loops - the Constellations’, using finely handwoven intricate tapestry, arranged on an invisible time line, which runs across the expansive wall; all together, referencing the world’s place in the solar system.
“My largest and most daring work to date, the materials and techniques instruct the outcome of these abstract works.” Katharine Swailes.
