MAIN SPACE

MOMENTUM: 18th TAMWORTH FIBRE TEXTILE BIENNIAL
From the early 1970’s the Tamworth Fibre Textile Biennial has continued to provide audiences with an exciting and vibrant survey exhibition of contemporary fibre textiles.  Artists from across Australia have been selected to participate in this year’s exhibition. Curator, Valerie Kirk, has put together an exhibition that looks at the influences new technologies have had on traditional fibre textile practice and how these artists have combined their individual practice to incorporate new techniques.

A Tamworth Regional Gallery exhibition toured by Museums and Galleries NSW.
This exhibition is supported by Visions of Australia, an Australian Government program supporting touring exhibitions by providing funding assistance for the development and touring of Australian cultural material across Australia
