Maggie and the OWLS: Light in Space

Maggie Hensel-Brown and the Outer Western Lacemakers (OWLS)

An exhibition celebrating the traditions and techniques of lace-making featuring the work of textile artist Maggie Hensel-Brown and the Outer Western Lacemakers (OWLS). The exhibition seeks to expand ideas about lace and lace-making, elevating an area of creative practice often overlooked as domestic, decorative, and ‘amateur’.

Presented in the former home of Margo and Gerald Lewers, Maggie & the OWLS speaks to the stories and spirit of their house: a place for creating, connecting, caring, tending, nurturing; for domesticity and intimacy; for dining, conversing, sleeping, dreaming, dressing, bathing, birthing, and slipping away.

Exhibition Dates: 15 March – 11 May
