Several members have been over to Ruthin Craft Centre to see this fabulous exhibition showing the intricate work of Nora Fok. Her wearable, sculptural pieces have all been handcrafted from nylon microfilament using techniques like knitting, weaving, knotting, tying and plaiting. The exhibition is beautifully presented and backed up with samples and details of how the work is created. It also gives an insight into Nora's early life, showing what can be achieved with perserverance and determination.
Sadly I can't include any images but it is worth checking out Nora's website or Geraldine Curtis's images on Flikr.com. As a Harley Gallery touring exhibition it will soon be moving on from Ruthin - closes 4th June but it is back in the northwest later in the year at the Touchstone Gallery. Well worth a visit! Jen
