Cultural Exchanges: Commonality and Community
Event Entry Fee
€0.00
Event Description
Working with members of the local Ukrainian community and crafters, this project with artist Annie Hogg has sought to find commonality through the prism of working with wild hedgerow plants, focusing on plants which are familiar to both communities to explore their uses for dyeing, folklore, and folk medicine. This exploration of our common ground resulted in dyeing threads, which were then used as embroidery linen. The designs, stories and final assemblage has been led by the participants, culminating in this exhibition in the heart of the town. Audio pieces featuring the voices of participants and Ukrainian Folk Choir can be heard via QR codes located on Mitchell Street. This project is supported by the Integration Fund.
