Gravers Lane Gallery presents Echoes in Thread: Woven, Printed and Stitched, opening June 6th with a reception from 5–8 PM and an artist talk at 6:30 PM. Featuring Lucy Arai, Polly Barton, and Agathe Bouton, the exhibition highlights fiber-based works rooted in tradition, craft, and cultural resonance. Drawing on influences from Japan and Burma, the artists use stitching, weaving, and printmaking to explore memory, heritage, and materiality. Thread becomes both medium and metaphor in this poetic conversation of texture and meaning. |
