Pliable Planes

The Fremantle Arts Centre will host major touring exhibition Pliable Planes, an exhibition of work by twelve leading Australian artists who reimagine textiles and fibre art.

On display from the 4 November, the exhibition presents works that experiment with materiality, spatial fluidity, and process and features painting, assemblage, sculpture, video, sound, and installation. It reflects artists' use of textiles and fibre to chart social and cultural change, respond to historical modes of production and representation, and test formal properties through weaving, embroidery, knitting, and sewing.

Pliable Planes includes new commissions and recent works by artists Akira Akira, Sarah Contos, Lucia Dohrmann, Mikala Dwyer, Janet Fieldhouse, Teelah George, Paul Knight, Anne-Marie May, John Nixon, Kate Scardifield, Jacqueline Stojanović, and Katie West.
