THE CRAFT EXHIBITION: A Portrait of Place
Earlier this year, five contemporary makers were invited to spend a week at Norfolk’s historic Holkham Hall as part of The New Craftsmen’s biennial ‘A Portrait of Place’ residency. Inspired by the 18th-century estate’s craft-rich surroundings, Alfred Newall, Arjan Van Dal, James Rigler, Laura Carlin and Mac Collins have created a collection or piece in response to the stately home, drawing on everything from its decorative plasterwork ceilings to the blacksmithery found on its grounds. The results will be exhibited at Holkham Hall before being shown at the London gallery during LDF.
