EMBROIDERY WORKSHOP IN THE GALLERY

Guided tour, workshop and community embroidery at the PATTERNS exhibition

2022.08.25. – 17:00

Our exhibition entitled PATTERNS places embroidery in contemporary works of art in the main role – presenting the works of 14 contemporary artists embroidered or evoking the technique and visuality of embroidery. On Thursday, August 25, starting at 5 p.m., we will organize an accompanying program related to the exhibition, where we will invite interested parties to a joint discussion and creation.

After the exhibition guided by curator Zsófia KISS-VÁNYA, Ágnes Eszter SZABÓ introduces us to the cultural and historical aspects of embroidery. After that, we will get to know Zsanett SZIRMAY’s cross-genre Soundweaving project more closely – and those present can independently design their own creative melodies made from embroidery, which we will play with a special player. We close the event with a joint creation: together we leave a message on Eszter Ágnes SZABÓ’s 12 m² billboard, which is made with community embroidery and is constantly expanding.

Those appearing at the event can also take one item from our exhibition-related catalog free of charge.
