Trois artistes écossaises formées au Edinburgh College of Art : Jo Barker, Sara Brennan and Susan Mowatt.
Jo Barker creates digital collages of her designs before beginning the hand-weaving process. The instant nature of this design process contrasts with the slow, sensual activity of tapestry weaving. Sara Brennan tends to weave from her own drawings. Her tapestries are simple and pure responses to the meeting of colours. Susan Mowatt, on the other hand, likes to reflect upon the very act of weavings itself, and has given performances of her weaving process. She sees weavings as the “place where the past, present and future come together in one action”.
