This fascinating book explores how to introduce notions of time and place to your textile art practice, to give deeper meaning and emotional resonance to your work. Renowned British textile artist Claire Wellesley-Smith demonstrates how these two fundamental concepts are linked--we experience time through place, and vice versa--and make endlessly rewarding themes for textile art. Illustrated with exquisite examples of the author's own textile work and that of other artists from around the world who embrace similar topics, this thoughtful, contemplative book offers a wealth of inspiration on how to incorporate these important themes into your own textile art practice.
