Last week to see “Women’s Work” @lyndhurst_mansion a beautiful exhibition that “tracks the deep, pervasive, and continuing influence of the historic, domestic handcraft in the practice of contemporary women artists. Historic examples of domestic handcraft, works that because of their association with domesticity and femininity were easily overlooked and generally not considered to be Art, are placed next to pieces by... contemporary women artists who employ the handcraft tradition... more than 125 historic and contemporary works..... in the context of Lyndhurst mansion, a grand example of the domestic setting for which many of the early pieces were originally crafted....” catalogue excerpt.
