Art Textiles: Made in Britain
comprises of Bethan Ash, Louise Baldwin, Jessica Grady, Cas Holmes, Christine Howell, Rosie James, Edwina Mackinnon, Sandra Meech, Sylvia Paul, Stephanie Redfern, Christine Restall, and Sarah Waters, all leading textile artists working in Britain today. Art Textiles: Made in Britain are pleased to announce their new exhibition, Flight.
This will be launched at The Sevenoaks Kaleidoscope Art Gallery Kent in September 2025, and will then tour throughout 2026. Don’t forget that you can keep up with us on Instagram and Facebook Our aim is to promote British art textiles and to ensure their future; to introduce them to new audiences and to continually stretch the boundaries with new, vibrant work, both as individuals and as a group. Art Textiles: Made in Britain was the idea of Hilary Beattie, who started the group in 2013. Every two years we mount a totally new, themed exhibition of work, and from 2014 until 2021 this new collection has premiered at the Festival of Quilts, Birmingham, UK, before touring to several venues around the UK. In 2023 our show Illuminate premiered at the Knitting and Stitching Show, Alexandra Palace, London. It was also shown at Harrogate Convention Centre, before touring around the UK. Images of our galleries at the Festival of Quilts can be found on the GROUP EXHIBITIONS page. These are Found 2021 Wild 2018 Concealed 2016 Identity 2014 and our major exhibition in Japan in 2020. We are always interested in enquiries from suitable galleries who are interested in showing our latest touring exhibition. Please contact us via the contact form above. Sorry, we are not currently recruiting new members. In our THE ARTISTS section you can also see images of all our members' work, and information and contact details about each artist. Most of our members teach workshops and courses throughout the year, and take part in exhibitions. Why not take a look at their websites and blogs to see what is coming up; the links are in the Artists section on this website. We sadly lost one of our founding members, the lovely Ineke Berlyn in February 2017. She was much loved and admired, and such a positive and life enhancing person throughout her illness. There is a selection of her work in our THE ARTISTS section, and in our group exhibitions section. We are as a group unable to offer opinions on work or offer mentoring.
