Fusion Textile Artists – Treasures
FUSION is a group of textile and mixed media artists based in the North East of England. The group meets regularly to give mutual support, advice, and encouragement about each other’s work.
These meetings may include a visit to a museum or art gallery, or to a location which may offer inspiration for another project; sometimes they engage in practical sessions on experimental design techniques.
They aim to exhibit together at least once a year. While this may involve working towards a common theme, each artist has a different approach to creating their contemporary textile artwork – producing a range of work which is diverse in both technique and interpretation.
The common thread that links them all is a love of textiles.
Individual interpretations may result in the addition of other mediums such as paint, paper, and found objects, or even natural materials collected during their inspirational outings. This willingness to experiment ensures that each exhibition is fresh and engaging, reflecting the evolving practices of the group’s members. Through this rich diversity, Fusion Textile Artists continue to push the boundaries of what textile art can be, inviting viewers to appreciate both the artistry and the stories woven into each piece.
Acknowledging that this exhibition is taking place in the weeks leading up to Christmas the group has focused on smaller items which may give ideas for treasured presents.
Many of the works in the exhibition are for sale. If you wish to make a purchase please enquire at the Reception desk.
Fusion Textile Artists – Treasures is on display daily until Monday 22 December 2025.
