Matter Pattern Exhibition opening in Turner Gallery February 13th from 5-7pm
Show on view until February 20th
Matter Pattern: An open call for any medium of work that is based around or features patterns. The show will explore how pattern and repetition can overwhelm and take over a space, while appreciating the textile craft background of pattern. I look to feature a range of color and design choices in the genre of pattern: from classic picnic blanket gingham to digital presentations of repetition.
The show will explore pattern as its own subject, showing how much it matters to art and design through a look at contemporary art making while still recognizing and appreciating its history and all it stands for.
