SUMMARY:‘In Pieces’ Textile exhibition 21-29 June
DESCRIPTION:\n\nCeridwen Sooke\nCeridwen Sooke uses a variety of media especially textiles, knitting and plastics which have been incorporated gradually into her work since 2013.  She uses her hand painted fabric and papers to make collage.  She works with wire to make 3D work.  Machine embroidery and stitch are an important part of her practice in order to create texture, colour and mark making.\nShe is a member of Textiles2020, a group which exhibits regularly in London. Previous exhibitions include :PERSPECTIVES, textiles2020, Espacio Gallery, WORN, texiles2020, FISHY TALES (a collaborative project), shown at Festival of Quilts, NEC Birmingham, PIECE BY PIECE, Citylit,  STORIES IN STITCH, SEWN ANTIDOTE – a collaborative textile artwork on reflections to the first lockdown of the COVID pandemic conceived and stitched together by Lara Hailey. Accepted as part of the Victoria and Albert Museum’s textile collection 2020\nwww.textiles2020.com/ceridwen\nInstagram: ceridwencrazyaboutcolour\n\n\nJane Colquhoun\nJane Colquhoun works with snips of leftover fabric and thread—‘orts’—layered and bound together with stitch to form tiny, quilted forms. Using fragments gathered from her domestic environment alongside printed and prepared elements, she pieces together collections that blur autobiography and fiction.\nArrays of figures evoke the shape of community—her maternal line, female friends, strangers observed from a distance, and aspects of her own identity. Fabric motifs and scraps of text transform them into surreal beings: flower maidens, mermaids, dancing queens, or goddesses—celebrations of kinship, nature, and shared histories.\nOther forms include textile houses that emerge as imagined dwellings—castle, garret, or hut—approached not simply as shelter but as psychological and poetic space. The house becomes an extension of the body: a site of memory, dreaming, safety, and retreat, yet also of habit, restriction, and containment.\nThis work developed following the loss of Jane’s mother and a period of focused reflection, when her practice turned inward. Themes of belonging, identity, and loss became central, and narrative regained significance as she sought connection with family histories and folklore. Presented as collections, each form acts  as a personal archive—assembled from remnants, holding emotional and symbolic resonance. Together, these stitched forms trace an interior landscape where home and community are continually gathered, preserved, and reimagined.\n\n\n\nCharlotte Fereday\nThrough hand-stitching, painting and layering leftover scraps of fabric and thread. Charlotte Fereday aims to capture a sense of the people, places and everyday objects around her. Part magpie, Charlotte borrows from traditional western embroidery, sashiko and kantha techniques mixing these with collage, quilting and printmaking.\n\n\n\nEmma McGinn\nEmma McGinn is an artist and PhD researcher looking for ways to understand human experience through her practice. Working with textiles, craft processes and carefully collected materials, she explores experiences including motherhood, memory and neurodivergence. She engages in slow, tactile processes such as stitching, patchworking, dyeing and assemblage. Through handling, altering and reassembling materials, her work reflects an intuitive way of thinking through making.\n\n
