Thread Exhibition – Now Live

Posted on July 15, 2022

THREAD – an engaging exhibition available to view now at The Rushes opposite Sports Direct!
Thread is an exhibition presented by recent Loughborough University Fine Art graduates.
All of the exhibiting artists have made work that, in some way, connects us to their own stories. There is work that explores cultural heritage, a journey across countries to set up a new home. There is work that explores personal history, the traumas we experience growing up and how we face these as adults. There is work, too, about the here and now; who is safe in this society, who feels comfortable and who doesn’t? Peering through the windows of the space, reading the statements and spotting details in the work, an audience is invited to piece together a number of stories, to unlock these multi-layered art works. What can you see?
