Hear from artists Carole Wilson and Tim Craker speak to their work in Material Implications.

Both artists use textile methodologies to create work across two and three dimensions from found, discarded and obsolete materials. The exhibition explores how the artists make meaning from these objects, which no longer have use, to tell stories and to honour the necessity of their creation, purpose and origin.

Through recycling, rescue and reuse, each examine the embodied histories of these discarded and oft maligned objects. With its considered re-use of discarded materials, Material Implications reverberates with ideas of waste, loss, place and environmental degradation - pressing concerns for our time.
