Talk-in with textile artist at Dry Water Arts in Amble

Dry Water Arts is hosting ‘A Conversation with Britney Fraser’.

The event forms part of the centre’s Room with a View programme.

Each exhibition is viewed not only by those who come to opening events and artist discussions but by those who come to regular classes. It’s a truly involving way to notice, ponder and share art that is there as part of the curated environment.

Brtiney’s woven work has been a prompt for many chats about textiles, hierarchies in art, women’s perceived roles as artists /makers, unappreciated skills, the nature of creativity, preservation of regional language, collective memories and sense of place .

The girls art group found an absolute connection with Britney’s work, in particular enjoying how the language is given prominence as something powerful and meaningful.

It takes place on Friday, February 2 from 6.30pm to 7.30pm. Refreshments provided
