More than 40 works of art; 11 women artists; a common motif of telling their stories through weaving, embroidery and installations. Recently opened at Mumbai’s 47-A, Feeling Through Fibre presents a kaleidoscope of mediums, art forms, textures and colours. “The artists in this show come from across the country, using fibre to express what they feel. This is our shared connection. Each work will speak to you. Each work has a bit of the artist’s soul,” says curator and textile artist Julie Kagti.
