The art exhibition Connecting Weave, Threads, and Culture dedicated to the ecology

The art exhibition Connecting Weave, Threads, and Culture dedicated to the ecology friendly art opens on December 17 in Australia. The exhibition is organized by the local company Ngarrindjeri Eco Art Co-Op (NEAC) that has organized the promotion companies of similar art for some years. All the works shown at the exhibition were created using eco materials or eco technologies in one way or another. A considerable part of the works is worked in traditional style. It is not surprising though the traditional art is closely connected with the ecology issues. Nevertheless, the exhibition isn´t limited by such exhibits only. The authors using contemporary technologies in their works are welcomed here. For example, 65 works of art represented at the exhibition are made of the secondary raw materials. However such unusual and ineffectual material was converted into real masterpieces in the hands of the artists. The exhibition’s display turned out to be very miscellaneous –here one can find literally everything from collages to purely designer projects. Weaved pictures and textile painting are of particular interest. It is worth mentioning that the textile works became the principal part of the exhibition; however painting, graphic art, ceramics, glass sculpture and many others will be represented at the exhibition.

The exhibition was dedicated to the Christmas holidays and all exhibits present there can be purchased. At this the exhibition will have a charity character and all the profits obtained from the sales will be spent on various ecological programs.

Workshops for children and adults will be carried out during the exhibitions and the visitors will have an opportunity to speak to the authors of the works being shown.

Time: December 17-19, 2010 Place: Meningie, Australia.
