In the Making

The act of making is at the heart of conceptual exploration in contemporary craft practice. "Process" can be understood as more than a means to create form but also a space where thought is reconciled, and where creative encounters and new discoveries are found. In the Making presents the work of four makers traversing this space and demonstrating how process and artistic intention are interdependent. The exhibitors have each honed a distinct material practice, from woodworking and stone-carving to electroplating and textiles, working with their chosen materials as autonomous collaborators, alive with history and spirit.

The exhibition speaks to the heart of what it means to be a maker. It highlights the reciprocal and responsive relationships between the practitioner, the application of craft-based skills and the creative expression that is articulated through materials. It’s all… in the making.
