The Shipley Art Gallery, Gateshead










'The Shipley collects craft by British makers that demonstrate innovation, experimentation and technical excellence. The gallery prioritises work which blurs the boundaries between the crafts and other art disciplines.'




















Many thought-provoking items on display, and it was very interesting to see the way that traditional craft skills - such as quilting, rug-making -  are being re-interpreted in contemporary items.
