UNFOLDING EXHIBITION

​

Espacio Gallery, 14-19 May 2026

​

The pieces in the exhibition are inspired by unpacking an attic trunk containing clothes and textiles kept by my mother. Unfolding the baby clothes began the unfolding of memories: my parents early life together, their first house and a map of that area. My first memories are here, the railway bridge, the endless walk to the shops and waking in my cot. The work reflects the make-do-and-mend attitude following WW2, as in the

remnants of Czechoslovakian silk ties used to make a cot cover. Old blankets and fabrics have been used throughout the work in recollection of a post-war period.
