FUSION TEXTILE ARTISTS
Membership numbers have varied but currently stand at 12. Members come from different localities in the North East and have varied backgrounds. Some have studied visual arts; most have undertaken some form of training – either in City & Guilds Creative studies, or degrees in textiles or surface design, though some are self-taught, developing their skills from what may have started as a hobby. This diversity is an advantage as they can, and do, learn from one another’s experience and knowledge.
Another aspect of this group is an enthusiasm to exhibit their work together. What may be difficult for an individual becomes more viable when 10 or 12 get together and work to a mutual theme.
Exhibition spaces have included Hartlepool Art Gallery, the Durham Light Infantry Museum and Art Gallery, Farfield Mill in Sedbergh and private galleries in North Yorkshire, Northumberland and Castle Douglas
