Wool Works is an exhibition of contemporary textile works designed and hand made by Craftwork at Exposure Gallery in London. The exhibit comprises of two large-scale hanging textile artworks made from natural wool & aluminum. In making these works, Craftwork mainly focused on building bridges between the disciplines of art, craft, design and fashion.


Using aluminum and natural wool top slivers, each screen is a collection of long hanks of wool hand made and twisted into rope. These rope strands are bound together by combining knotting and held in place with powder coated / mirrored aluminum tubes. Craftwork signature Pompoms punctuate and locate the macramé knots woven through. In these beautiful works, there is a strong visual interplay between graphics, materials and textures whilst fusing large-scale textile design with jewelry.
The exhibit runs from September 15, 2009, to October 30, 2009 at Exposure Gallery, and travels to Red Bull Fashion Factory for London Fashion Week.
