About this event
Spens’ etchings have been exhibited and collected internationally since 2013, including at the European Cultural Centre in Venice during the 2022 Art Biennale.
Sally Spens worked as a textile designer in London, New York and Japan before taking her drawings into etchings, which often recall the subtleties and richness of textiles.
Her work in textile design partnership Bentley & Spens has been archived and exhibited by the Victoria & Albert Museum since 1989, including ‘Kimono – Kyoto to Catwalk’, currently on a world tour.
“Etching feels like a natural progression from working in textiles, both connect with the translation of drawing into print. Sometimes directly as in the botanical works, sometimes constructing images – with elements form nature, observation and memory combined.”
Exhibitions at Trebah are free to view in our Visitor Centre
