Baltic Mini Textiles

27 August to 23 october 2021

EXHIBITION DESCRIPTION

Curator: Anna Śliwa, The Gdynia City Museum, Gdynia, Poland

Launched in 1993 in Gdynia, Poland, the Baltic Mini Textile exhibition is one of Europe’s leading reviews of textile miniatures. The juried event is held every three years featuring artists from all over the globe.

"The small scale (20 x 20 x 20 cm) lets artists experiment with complex, intricate techniques and use delicate, ephemeral materials. The huge variety of the artists own techniques and fascinating artistic solutions show us that textile miniatures are a fully independent, important genre, full of potential." – Anna Śliwa, Exhibition Curator.

Warwick Art Gallery (Queensland, Australia), in partnership with Gdynia City Museum (Poland), has curated this special international tour featuring thirty-five works by artists from Europe and Australia
