‘Darning is small acts of care and paying attention. The damage, in a way, does the work for me. I respond to it. The mending is slow work to hold the damage in place.’

Celia Pym

About

Make Hauser & Wirth’s summer exhibition in London, ‘Connect. Reveal. Conceal’, presents distinct explorations in material practice and thinking of three artists. Through an expanded study of textiles, each communicates a culturally familiar visual language, moving fluidly between the everyday and the imagined, suggestion and intent, sense and memory of touch. The meeting of the maker’s hand with the instinctive and skilled application of process and technique, elicits works imbued with meaning and metaphor. The exhibition is an invitation for visitors to consider the symbolic importance and agency of textiles together with the tacit knowledge that unites hand, eye and mind with the body and lived experience.
