Textiles on show
THE BLUE Egg Gallery in John’s Gate Street in Wexford is hosting a textile exhibiton entitled Interconnections 2 featuring the work of eight textile artists from Ireland and Scotland which was opened by the Finnish-born weaver Johanna Roche of Kiltrea Pottery.
It follows the success of Interconnections 1, an Irish-Scottish tapestry exhibition held two years ago as part of the Lamb Festival in Roscommon.
Curated by Frances Crowe and Joan Baxter, the collection comes to Wexford from from Boyle, Co. Roscommon, where it was part of the 2018 International Fibre Arts Festival and comprises work by Frances Crowe, Mary Cuthbert, Terry Dunne (Wexford) and Angela Forte from Ireland and Joan Baxter, John Brennan, Amanda gizzi and Elizabeth Radcliffe from Scotland.
