May sees the opening of a fabulous new exhibition, Mechanical Drawing, the Schiffli Project. The Schiffli machine is a unique, one-hundred year old multi-needle embroidery machine and this exhibirtion includes work from, amongst others, Alice Kettle, Rowena Arden, Kate Egan and Melanie Miller. Each has approached the machine in a very individual way, bringing something of their own practice to the machine and challenging the usual pre-conceptions of commercial embroidery.
Don't miss: The Inside Story - Saturday 14 June at 2.00pm in the new Dover Gallery.
Dr Melanie Miller, artist and co-curator of Mechanical Drawing - the Schiffli Project, will be in conversation with artist Kate Egan. Details available from Reception on 015396 21958.
We are open daily from 10am - 5pm.
Clare Hamilton, Director.
