Platform Gallery Clitheroe

Here are some of the artists/designers work i admired from the Lancashire and Yorkshire textile open exhibition at the Platform Gallery.

Kerry Mosley'trapped beauty'

This was one of my favourites from the exhibition, it was very effective and stood out to me from a distance. When viewed close up you could see the delicacy of it, suiting the butterfly theme and echoing their precious quality. Created using wire and machine stitch.
