Kay Lawrence is one of Australia's pre-eminent tapestry and textile artists. In this exhibition she pays tribute to those who taught her how to transform fibre materials into baskets. “To engage in the temporal rhythms of basket making is to experience each moment of making as a continuity that entwines past, present and future. This insight is the unspoken gift my teachers gave me as they shared their skills.” Her work reveals the processes of making and drawing - transforming material things into artworks.
