MORLEY GALLERY

HEALLREAF 5

10 - 19 December 2024

 
 
 

This international exhibition showcases 40 weavers from around the world.

Using centuries old techniques, exhibitors produce beautiful thought-provoking works. The name ‘Heallreaf’ is an old English word meaning a tapestry hung in a public place. There are unlikely to be medieval maidens or unicorns at Heallreaf 5, but you will find vibrant images, sometimes representational, sometimes abstract, based on subjects such as climate change, social injustice or the displacement of populations.
