About the event

The nights were blue-black,  punctuated by the two tone horn of the train passing down below the house and sometimes owlish shrieking. Were you to leave the house at night and go walking in wetter weather, moonlight would bounce up from the tarmac into ghoulish apparitions mere metres away and carry on rising to greet you every several steps. I’m certain the night is a menace to all children, though latterly it was the long straight interior corridor connecting the front and back of the house that caused me the most concern.

The Weaver’s House is a group exhibition bringing together artists from Canada, the UK and France.  The artists invited to participate create works that are a product of a relationship between a side of the mind that is conscious and  one that lies in muddied waters.  There is a sensitivity to the natural world, playfulness mixed with fear where shadows are woven through memory.  The artists work with references ranging from video games played in their youth to gothic literature and memories that lay in the dark corners of curiosity.

Industrious making ties the works together through the use of materials found and delicately pieced together set within the backdrop of the old weaving factory at Strangefield.  This space allows the work to live in a fictional zone.  Metal prongs go before to sense the void, and name its happenstance — growing forward it forgets its immediate past bringing the viewer into the haze of imagination.
