Threads through Revelation

Threads through Revelation a spectractular display of textile art by Jacqui Parkinson Victoria Methodist Church 4th September to 14th October Mon/Wed/Fri 11am - 4pm Tues/Thurs/Sat 11am - 6pm Admission free

Threads through Revelation - spectacular visions in fabric 4 September - 14 October Twelve million stitches and ore than three years in the making. 'Threads through Revelation' created by textile artist Jaqui Parkinson, is an exploratin of one ofhte most enigmatic books of hte Bible, 'Revelation', but its artistic merit appeals to a wide audience. Each large embroidered panel is made on bedsheets Jacqui bought in second-hand shops. She relishes the idea that other people's dreams, histories and DNA are part of the story she is telling. Her technique is a combination of painted dyes, multi-layered sliks cut to create an extraordinary grayed effect and metallic leather stitched on top. The panels are strikingly coloured, reflecting the text they illustrate. We welcome everyone, people of all faiths and none to this exhibition. See our website for talks, concerts, drama and other linked events. Jacqui Parkinson will be giving two talks, afternoon and evening on Sat 21st September

See our Threads Through Revelation Events page for related events.

There is also an article on the Methodist Church website about the exhibition.
