Emily Jo Gibbs – The Value of Making
September 1 @ 1:30 pm – 4:00 pm
Emily is interested in the idea that by taking the time to slowly describe someone in stitch, you convey your admiration. Celebrating people who make things by the investment of time in making the work, a quiet, thoughtful act of care and value.
Emily has established an international reputation for her hand-stitched portraits and still-lifes, observing the quiet beauty of the overlooked.
Examples of Emily’s work are in museum collections including V&A and The Crafts Council. She is a member of Contemporary Applied Arts, The 62 Group of Textile Artists and The Artworks Guild.
