Curated and created by Mardi Nowak the exhibition unravels the concept of the 21st century tapestry. Through this archaic art-form, Nowak illustrates its ability to tell stories, fashion tales of the modern world through references to popular culture. Noawk pays tribute to the wool itself, blending colours, creating austere pixelated images.

 

Tapestry has been an imbued form of storytelling in European history for centuries. It captured the battle of Hastings, and The Crusades, while ancient tapestry capture the coronation of emperors and kings. So let Noawk tell you the modern story through her tapestry.
