About the book >.>.> The Textile Study Group has evolved over time since it was established nearly fifty years ago initially being heavily involved in teaching alongside individual art practice. The Group has gained a reputation for offering an exciting summer school each year which continues to be an important part of their work as textile artists. In recent years the balance has favoured more challenging ways in which to exhibit with more emphasis on development of ideas. In 2010 Visual Thinking – unpicked with the accompanying seminar started a line of enquiry into individual practice. It raised questions that the Textile Study Group members continue to investigate and address in their work for Insights. The questioning and revealing of how they work as artists and makers are at the core of this new publication. In preparation for writing their individual chapters members engaged in some challenging writing activities and individual and group discussions wrestling with expressing and explaining their individual practice. Working together on this collaborative project has highlighted how diverse and yet similar we are and revealed a common zest and passion for what we do. (MP)
