'Stunning Embroidery Exhibitions' (No:9) | ‘Colours, Textures & Heritage of Lancashire’ Exhibition

Contemporary & traditional embroiderers from the English county of Lancashire share their beautiful work in a group exhibition at the Coach House Gallery at the 400 year old Astley Hall in Chorley, England. Textile artist Susan Fielding guides us through the exhibition. “The exhibition was inspired by the people and places of our home county. For some of us the rural landscapes of hills, moors and coastal areas, and the habitat they provide for native animals and birds were a major source of creativity. For others, the architecture of some of our historic buildings and the urban landscapes of the mill towns acted as a stimulus.” Members of the Ribble Creative Stitchers and Bolton Stitch & Textile Group, used a combination of both traditional and contemporary textile practices, coupled with mixed-media techniques, to produce creative and inspiring textile art. Filmed at Astley Hall Coach House Gallery in Chorley, England 2022.
